I'm doing some development which will involve reacting to emails, and I'd like to use a local IMAP mail server for this. I currently use Devnull SMTP server for testing of sending emails, but this just logs and discards messages, it doesn't do IMAP for checking incoming emails/mailboxes. I don't need/want a full-blown server, just some...
Within the last day, in Internet Explorer 8, the developer tools window will not show up. When I hit F12 or use menu Tools -> Developer Tools I get the Developer Tools entry in the Task Bar but the actual window will not show up. It has been running fine for a month or so.

I would like to edit the HTML code of an IFrame in IE8 with the IE8 Developer Tools. The HTML tab in the Developer Tools shows the original page and the IFrame just fine. But when I click on the edit icon, only the HTML code of the original site is shown, not the code of the IFrame. Firebug allows me to edit the IFrame. I need to do t...
I've read this question mentioning Code Bubbles and I've watched their video presentation. The video is impressive, and does seem a little bit futuristic, but apparently it's somewhat real. But that kept me thinking... Would a developer really use such tool? We, as developers, are used to deal with code files, organizing them in direc...
In sprite-based systems, it's common to fake rotation of a sprite by having many different images, each showing it rotated an extra few degrees. Is there any free tool which will take a single image, and output a single image containing several rotations? It should also ideally let us control how many images are in each row. e.g if I ...
Hi all, I have looked at some autofills for Firefox. But they are not designed with the developers' needs in mind. General internet surfers will need a tool to fill in many different forms with constant values for each form. Developers need exactly the opposite, when you want to test a part of your app you'll need to fill a single (or a...
I use 'FireBug' extension of FF to debug designed webpages and installed 'IE Developer Toolbar' for IE to get this purpose, but it is not as good as FireBug. It is difficult to work with it. Are there any other extension for IE that are more user friendly and easy to use?? ...
So in my javascript I'm making an ajax call to a service on my website. Whoops, something fails. No problem. Here's what I'd do in Firefox: Open the firebug console Find the failed Ajax call and click the + sign to see more info. The response tab has the raw HTML. Who wants to read all that? I click the HTML tab. Ah, the nicely fo...
Traditionally I use FireBug to debug my AJAX requests. It lets you examine both the contents of your request as well as the response that was sent back from the server. (it also notifies you in the console when these occur, which is a useful feature that Chrome seems to lack). In Chrome, I only seem to be able to view the requests, not ...

Clarification: I'm referring to companies that pay developers, professionally. I understand why a "hobby" or "for fun" developer wouldn't want to (or couldn't afford) a fully-features pay tool, and may prefer to tinker. I'm talking about situations where a deadline is bearing down on a developer/company and development time is diverted a...

I have been examining a web page in Chrome Developer Tools and noticed that the CSS rules are displayed in alphabetical order. I noticed that when I tried to track the inheritance of the rules applied to an element through all its ancestors. Is there any way to change the order in which rules are displayed? Or maybe this is possible usi...

EDIT The idea is I have large, 25 lines of SQL commands ready to be used on the database. And they are somehow complicated, so I am wondering how could I rewrite them wit...
