X-Ray Extension Updated
Posted by Stuart Robertson | Web Design Software
For everyone who has been patiently waiting for the X-Ray extension to be updated to work with Firefox 1.5.0.1 — here it is! This new version includes several enhancements:
* Support for a wider range of XHTML elements
* Can now be toggled on and off without reloading the page
* No longer interferes with the keyboard shortcut to cut text
Install X-Ray Extension for Firefox
Thanks to all the people who emailed with suggestions for improvements or offered code optimizations. “joh6nn” and “dragonchaos” deserve special acknowledgement for their help.
Donations to The X-Ray Tip Jar are greatly appreciated.
Features to be added in future versions:
* display self terminating tags correctly
* identify deprecated elements
* identify elements incorrectly placed on the page (head content inside the body)
* _possibly display additional information about the tag such as class and id_

live zu editieren, sich die einzelnden Elemente einrahmen lassen, Quelltexte in Tabs öffnen… Also eigentlich ist dieser Tip überflüssig,da alle Menschen, die Webdesign betreiben, um das Teil nur schwer herumkommen und es somit eh jeder kennt. X-Ray Extension: Stellt das Markup einer Webseite da, und zwar mittlerweile mit „id“ und „class“ Attributen. Dieser Röntgenapparat für Internetseiten ist ein feines Analysetool, um mal anderen über die Schulter zugucken oder Fehler in den eigenen Quelltexten

Oh good!
I just double-checked, and when I click “Find Updates” for version 0.5, it says “No updates were found for X-Ray.” I was, of course, able to update by downloading the xpi above.
Love this extension. Thanks.

Mary, I had the same problem (w2Ksp4+) but now with 0.6 it seems to be working correctly.
Thanks to the developers for this update.
