Before I upgraded to Firefox 3 I used to constantly use the View Source Chart Firefox Addon which shows the source HTML in a very organized, graphical form. Unfortunately, this addon is only for Firefox 2 and the beta version for Firefox 3 now costs $10 on the author's site.
Anyone know of a similar addon that works for Firefox 3?
(of course, I might indeed pay $10 for this, but first want to ask around if there isn't anything better and free, as the version for Firefox 2 had its limitations and I don't really want to pay $10 for something in beta that I can't test out before paying for it.)
Is Firebug not sufficient?
You can try to use Nightly Tester Tools It overrides addons compatibility check. Using this tool I managed to bring all of my fav extensions from FF2 to FF3
View formatted source is kinda similar. It uses tree controls rather than pretty colour blocks, though.
Try Chris Pederick's Web Developer Toolbar.
You could always try Firefug. It sounds like it does a similar thing, plus more :)
i had the same problem...
you can use the free version (2.5.0503)...it's compatible with firefox3 and it's work.
on the web site it's write that it's not with full functionality but i don't know whitch functionality there aren't.

Anyone know of a way to have a split screen view in Notepad++ where I can be editing my HTML / CSS in one pane/tab and be seeing the Live Preview of what it would look like in a browser in another tab/pane?
Ideally, this would be:
in Notepad++ itself (using native panes/tabs as described above)
the user could configure whatever browser rendering engine (Chrome, FF, IE, etc...) they wanted to view the preview in
However, I could live with any variation of the two above, e.g. simply integrated with RubyMine using external windows/browsers, or maybe, the preview only available with limited rendering engines (only Chrome let's say).
The plugin Preview HTML is the closest match to what your are looking for.
Go to the Plugins menu and then find the Preview HTML entry to install it. Its description is: Preview HTML files inside Notepad++ (or in a floating window) without having to save them first. The latest update now refreshes the preview automatically after switching tabs, or whenever the document is changed.
More information in the official website.
I think you're looking for it,the"Preview HTML".
this is the Introduction:http://chiselapp.com/user/vor0nwe/repository/npp_preview/home
Well this is now 8! years old. But I'd thought I'd chime in. The author of the plug in is no longer updating it, and, at least in my machine, it's not working anymore. 1
The plug-in author's suggestion would be to use a more modern text editor (like Visual Studio Code) and use one of the extensions. (Live Preview)
I know programs such as Webstorm JetBrains 6.0.1 can do this, you will have to download the chrome extension also. If not, then you can always use Codeacademy.com as an alternative and type code into there editor. It still works. :/
Just came across this post.
Years ago had been interested in Notepad++ but found it too limited as wanted it to be more of a wysiwyg type interface and not just text. Plus, would be awesome to be able to have sortable tables inside notes. The closest I've found to do these things are PIM tools such as OneNote or EssentialPIM.

I am trying to find out what the PS3 web browser is like in terms of CSS, JS, Flash, etc.
I found some articles saying it is pretty bad, but these are several years old and the PS3 software is frequently updated so I can't trust things like this.
Can anyone point me at official specs or a recent analysis? Your own test results are welcome but please state how recent they are.
This is an old post, but thought I'd add to it.
A quick visit to acid3.acidtests.com shows that my (up-to-date) PS3 is now getting a 99% score. It's actually a little lower since the test also requires pixel-perfect rendering and smooth animation, neither of which it has yet. (One of the boxes is gray when it should be yellow, and the animation is jerky.)
Whatsmyuseragent.com shows that it's running WebKit 531.22.8, which must be behind the improvement. It's strange that they're using 531 in a 2012 system update since that build is almost three years out of date. But regardless it's a huge leap forward compared to what they had before.
The latest specs I could find showed the PS3 getting an ACID3 score of 27 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid3) and a similar Wikipedia page details the capabilities of the NetFront engine, which is used by the PS3: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NetFront. These results are from a January 2011 release, but the release notes for subsequent updates don't show any modifications to it.
There are also a few questions on here which can give you a pointer to potential issues such as: Javascript not working on PS3 Browser.
As of PS3 firmware 4.50, a custom fork of the WebKit browser is used that masquerades as Netfront NX. It is roughly equivalent in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript functionality to an iPad 1 running iOS 5.0 in terms of functionality -- except that the PS3 also includes a Flash 9.x runtime. Having the Flash 9 runtime allows for using polyfills for WebSockets, Promises, and other HTML5/ES6 features. It does effectively pass the Acid3 test, which some minor alignment issues like most 2012-era browsers.
A decent JavaScript development setup that is using webpack and Flash 9 polyfills should be able to produce a JS bundle targeting PS3, Xbox 360, and Android 2.x with pretty advanced functionality comparable to modern mobile browsers.

Safari 5 has gotten a new feature: The Reader. It shows a simplified version of an article page with just the article itself (and not all the clutter around). It also merges multiple pages (if the article is split across multiple pages) to a single one.
This is an extremely useful feature and I would like to port it over to Chrome.
I was searching for Readers code in the WebKit trunk (e.g. http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/trunk/) but I couldn't find it.
Any hint where I can find it?
Safari Reader borrows from the Readability project, according to an article in the register. Readability implements a similar user experience, but does so in a cross browser fashion (using bookmarklets)
The project site is probably a good place to start:
http://code.google.com/p/arc90labs-readability/
I hope this helps!
BTW - I had links to several sites, including the demo site, the original artcile in the register, but stackoverflow won't let n00bs post more than one link. I will edit to add those once I have some rep!
UI-level features are generally part of the Safari codebase, which as Ivo said is not open-source. The WebKit nightly builds aren't open-source either, they are essentially versions of Safari that use an embedded, trunk copy of the engine instead of the one that shipped with the OS.
I'm not sure where safari's webreader code is. but there is a tool called boilerpipe that does something very similar
A good review on similar tools available is given on Tomaz Kovacic's blog: http://tomazkovacic.com/blog/122/evaluating-text-extraction-algorithms/
It contains comparison of text extraction tools (including boilerpipe, reaability and several others) on two sets of articles. Also there is a feature wise comparison in other article on the same blog.

I've found wkhtmltopdf, which looks good on the surface and works fine in very small cases, but it doesn't provide any real css control over the rendering.
By that I mean it doesn't use the print media type and page breaks are not respected, as well, on windows you can't control the names of some header/footer variables, or generate a TOC off of teh h1 tags.
Are there any real open source alternatives, I've tried xhtml2pdf which is a python library actually called pisa, but it requires reportlab which doesn't play nice windows.
I'm actually programming in .net but if its good and open source, the language isn't a huge issue.
This is an old stackoverflow question, but because google took me here, it could be helpful for somebody else.
Weasyprint should support what the author was looking for.
It supports print css features like page break.
Try weasyprint
It turns out there was no open source alternative that was simpler, but on windows wkhtmltopdf is just not the best thing, so we paid for a better solution.
Winnovative's PDF library is what we used
While it is not open-source, I use ABCPDF. I have a template page in .NET that I use for a wrapper to set up a custom stylesheet for generating PDFs only.

Is there an editor that is:
Available for at least windows and linux
Highlights multiple syntaxes in the same document. (Ala Dreamweaver)
Tabbed interface
All the editors I tried highlighted by file extension only which isn't fine grained enough.
At the very least it needs to distinguish scripting from html, css and javascript in the same document.
Scite!
The answer is emacs. You can do pretty much anything you want with that editor. There is a 'nxhtml-mode' which you can use to edit javascript, php, html,ruby, jsp,css, whatever on the same file. If you're still at university, the best advice I can give you is to start learning how to use emacs. It will change your life, really.
Eclipse (very good, but heavy)
vim (doesnt have tabs, but aprt from that very lightweight and very good)
emacs (only heard about it that is is very good, but it has a steap learning curve)
hop it helps
Netbeans.
I've only tried it with HTML av Javascript for two languages in the same file though.
I have used jedit. Just need a java runtime.
Handling syntax highliting and completion for multi-language files is something the NetBeans people have been working on and has been available for javascript since 6.1. I got the impression from JavaPosse#214 that this has seen further work in 6.5.
I don't Netbeans myself (my primary tools are Emacs and Eclipse), but It might be worth a look for you.
SciTE FTW!!! Doesn't even need an installation! A portable single exe.
