I'm always hearing that Firebug is the best for web dev. I prefer to use a webkit based browser, and I use Safari 4, or Webkit. I don't mind the web inspector. That's the background. I'm wondering what features does firebug have that Safari 4 does not? If it's compelling, sure i'll give it a shot, but i've been working with it today...
I'm trying to build a horizontal accordion with Jquery. It seems to be working "ok" in Firefox. But in Webkit (Safari 3 + 4, and Chrome) the sub-level UL flashes after the Hide function. Any help would be greatly appreciated. To see a working demo: http://ableobject.com/horaccordion1.html Here is what I'm working on: <html xmlns="ht...
The scene: I'm writing an embeddable widget. It takes the form of a <script> tag, which builds an iframe containing everything it needs to display.

I actually have two questions regarding exception/error handling in the iPhone app that I am making: The app uses Internet, but when there's no connection, the app just dies (during launch). How can I handle this to print some infomsg to the user, instead of just getting thrown back to the springboard? Can someone show me an example of...
The issue is that I've written a Safari plug-in (http://tr.im/growler) that allows web applications to send Growl notifications by calling Javascript functions. However, at the moment the way it is written, people need to use <embed> to initialise the plug-in so that Javascript can begin using it (something I picked up from Apple's examp...

Adobe Air's (read: Flex) mx:HTML component uses WebKit to render webpages. As such, does anyone know of a way to tweak WebKit's settings via the Air application (or a Flex API)? For example, I'd like to set WebKit's "enable-private-browsing" setting from "false" to "true". ...
I want to use WebKit as the layout/rendering engine, and I want to code it in Java. I am having troubles finding any useful info.

Where can I find documentation on how to work with and use WebKit? ( I...

According to Apple's documentation, @font-face is deprecated for use on the iPhone version of Safari. The iPhone only includes 11 fonts, AFAIK, and, in any case, I need a nice blackletter font for an app I'm building. I'll be generating random text, so images are not an option. What alternatives do I have? Am I stuck with a JavaScript so...
