Mozilla Firefox Extension Ie Tab
26.07.2007. 05:51
IE Tab - an extension from Taiwan, features: Embedding Internet Explorer in tabs of Mozilla/Firefox. Really useful if you are a web developer and need to test the look and feel of your website in multiple browsers. This tool I have used to on so many occasions that it is simply one of my favorite extensions available.|
Mozilla Firefox® 1.5 (Download from Google Web Site) |
Testimonials
This is my first choice for testing pages in IE but it does crash the browser occasionally so you might want to consider not using it if you have other tabs or windows open in Firefox with pages you don't want to lose.
It's not about displaying the site "well" or not, it is about displaying the site strictly according to web standards or not. IE does not render pages as close to the standard as firefox does, but it is far and away the most frequently used browser, so web developers frequently develop pages that aren't strictly correct in order to pander to their audience. If IE delivers on their promise to be more stringent in this next release I believe you can expect your web pages to look more like they do in Firefox now.
I use Firefox 99% of the time, why can't it display some sites as well as IE? E.g Netflix displays poorly in Firefox and I have chided them about it. But to get decent graphics one must use IE.
This extension to firefox is perhaps one of the best tools for web developers that must view pages in Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox.
I use it on many web sites that have basically been designed for Internet Explorer. Easy and fast!
