How can we manipulate elements value in browser forms.
I have a signup form and i want to manipulate the hidden post data while submitting the form...please help me.
You can use the plugin 'firebug' in your browser . In this plugin you can get source code by which you can manipulate the elements of your sign in form and also you can add elements view hidden elements such as authenticity token and other hidden values and also you can change the data of your form fields. For more details hit this url:
http://getfirebug.com/
If you want to manipulate them WITHIN the browser, then open your browser's Developer Tools, as #Aristona suggested:
If you're using Google Chrome you can click the right button of the mouse over an input and then "Inspect Element".
If you're using Firefox you can add the Firebug plugin, that let's you inspect the DOM.
With IE use the Developer Toolbar.
Opera has a similar toolbar, but you get the idea.
Press F12 on your browser so you can change the form data.
You don't need any other dependencies such as Firebug. Every major browser has a builtin web inspector.

Is there a global shortcut to open an incognito window of Chrome?
I know that there is ctrl+shift+n but that only works in the context of Chrome – not while in other applications.
I also know that you can drag the order of the applications in the task bar and then use win+1 (to 9) in order to switch the focus to that application. Playing around with the keyboard, I've also noticed that you can open a window, too, with win+shift+1 … but that's not incognito. (win+ctrl+1 opens the application in admin mode – which is a nice discovery but also not what I'm looking for)
I'm searching for a solution that
doesn't involve the mouse and
doesn't mess with my alt+tab order,
preferably involving the task bar (but that's optional).
What about creating a shortcut of Chrome, in properties append chrome --incognito into target textbox and assign a shorcut key?
I've got two solutions – but they're more like workarounds than solutions:
(1) win+alt+1 opens the taskbar context menu (I think it's also called "jump menu") and from there I can select it with ↓.
(2) I can also open the "Run" window by pressing win+r and then type chrome --incognito the first time // hit enter on subsequent times.
But can anyone find something better?

Let's say I log into facebook but I don't want the "likes" to appear when the page is rendering.
Again: I open a photo from my friend. Under the pic there's a element that says "Somefriend, someotherfriend and 123123 persons like this".
I don't want that to appear.
I think it can be achieved by writing some script (plugin, addon) for my browser, maybe in Firefox with firebug or in Chrome with it's built in code inspector...
Any suggestions?
Cheers
Yes, you can easily implement such functionality using browsers' extensions (add-ons). In order to do so, read their official tutorials. We can't give you exact solution because it differs among browsers. One thing will be similar though - they all use Javascript for page manipulation
Every browser comes with a built-in CSS style sheet. Simply goto the Developer Tools or press Ctrl-Shift-I on most browsers and check out the user agent stylesheet. The trick is to find this stylesheet in your installation folder and add whatever elements you want to hide and adding !important so it overrides everything.

Is it possible to open links in a new tab inside Google Chrome without loading them? And instead, that it would wait for you to manually go to the tab to start loading ? (same philosophy as what Firefox, I suppose. Firefox does this when you open it and it starts where you left off, loading only the first-tab/last-loaded-tab)
Please let me know if there is a way to do that in Google Chrome, either by editing options or by the use of an extension you know off, that would be helpful.
Yes, this should be sort-of possible, but it's ugly and you still have to load something.
Basically, you need a bare-bones page that has JavaScript to detect whether or not the page has focus. You can use the code samples here to determine that: Is there a way to detect if a browser window is not currently active?
Once the page has focus, you can redirect to the actual page. This is messy. Don't do it, unless you have a really good reason. Your users will hate you for it.

Today I noticed I was getting an AJAX loaded "Shopping Assistant" in my Google Search results:
This isn't a Google thing from what I can tell, looks like I have some spyware in my Chrome browser. Anybody know how to remove? (not listed in the Extension)
In my case it was Translate selection 1.2 addon.
Try to open a console (f12 or ctrl+shift+i) into a simple page (that is not chrome store or start page) and start disabling extensions one by one then refresh the page.
This is how it looks like when the thing is still on.
This is a spyware that comes with Flash Video Downloader extension in chrome. UnInstall Flash Video downloader that should get rid of this.
I found the same malware in Translate Selection 1.3 extension. It seems that Chrome Web Store is full of complaints about the problem: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/translate-selection/goanabmlmgfinmjohhepcpffcnkeobjm/reviews.
If you have Superfish WindowShopper extension installed, perform following steps:
Click the Chrome menu on the browser toolbar, select Tools and then click on Extensions.
In the Extensions tab, remove (by clicking on the Recycle Bin) the Superfish WindowShopper extension.
The BetterChrome extension also contains this. Uncheck "Enable SuperFish Suggestions" in the BeterChrome options.

I have read about extensions which allows us to edit and make changes to live website and see how it looks. This is specifically for user interface designing. But some how i am not able to find that plugin. Can anyone tell me how i will edit a live page of anywebsite
Firebug Addon for Firefox
Developer Tools in Chrome (accessed through Spanner -> Tools -> Developer Tools)
Both allow you to modify CSS and HTML content on a live webpage and instantly see the effects.
You can do this with Google Chrome easily: http://code.google.com/chrome/devtools/ There are other options as well (Firebug: http://getfirebug.com/)
A quick crash course using Chrome:
Ctrl + Shift + I brings up the developer tools (or use J instead of I to go straight to the command line). Alternatively, you can right-click anywhere on a page and click Inspect Element.
On the right hand side you can see style information. Uncheck boxes to disable things. Double-click items to edit them. The changes take place right before your eyes!
The command line is a big help for editing/debugging javascript as well (check out the buttons at the lower left).
That should be enough to get you started. Good luck!
There are some websites designed for A/B testing that let you do this:
https://optimizely.appspot.com/
http://www.reedge.com/
Just enter your website URL and it will take you to a visual editor where you can modify the page with drag-and-drop.
Firebug is what you're looking for (for Firefox).
