Developers staying with Firefox 2 for its Firebug support should check out the popular extension's latest beta.
Early versions of Firefox 3 did not play well with Firebug, which reaches deep into the browser's internals. Many developers chose to stick with the older version of Firefox, despite the new features available in Firefox 3.
Firebug 1.2 Beta has been available for a few weeks and is receiving a much better response. Developers have noted a few issues (it's beta, after all), but very little crashing and burning, as seen prior to the official release of Firefox 3.
Firebug is a web development tool for tweaking CSS, debugging JavaScript and more. It is like juiced-up "view source" for seeing how others put a site together. Firebug really shines when used to streamline your own development.
Give this Beta a shot and let us know how it works for you.
