Firefox losing history

Writing about web page http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/

Damn Firefox just lost my history so I don't get auto-complete in the url bar…again.

If anyone else suffers from this occasionally, try this out. MozBackup lets you backup your Firefox/Mozilla/Thunderbird profiles selectively and selectively restore them back again. I am now going to back mine up weekly. Grrrr.

Firefox developers plugins

Writing about web page http://www.bytefarmers.com/log/2005/09/03/extending-firefox-for-web-developers/

To add to my usual collection of Firefox plugins, I came across the above webpage listing a few new ones. On top of my existing ones, I've just added:

View Rendered Source by Jennifer Madden
Neat tool that allows to view the actual generated markup, useful when generating markup via scripting.

View Cookies by Edwin Martin
Utility that adds a Cookie tab on the ‘Page Info’ window, allowing you to see and edit any set cookie that affects that page.

ViewCookies is so much quicker and easier than browsing around the standard Firefox cookies menu and the View Rendered Source is lovely for viewing HTML source code.
