Internet Explorer 7 Developer Toolbar

IE7 Dev Toolbar
I am in the middle of a large and difficult programming project that is pushing the limits of what I was capable of, so as you can imagine I feel like a stretched out rubber band that is having a hard time shrinking back to the way it was. As if the task wasn't demanding enough, I went looking for tools to help with web development. I am completely set on Firefox, I have all the tools I could need, but for IE 7 (the browser I really wish I didn't have to develop for) my arsenal was admittedly a bit lacking, mostly because the browser is so new and I just hadn't looked at it yet. Upon a quick search I stumbled head-long across this nifty little tool, the Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar. It features a DOM "explorer", the ability to toggle certain IE features, view classes, discover table and other elements for developers and our many headaches. IE7 Dev Toolbar (sounds better shortened, doesn't it) is available on Windows Marketplace as a FREE download. IE Dev Toolbar adds a nice set of features like a customizable ruler, an image dimensions display, a window resizer to allow you test out your pages on different resolutions, and a bunch of other options. This is one of the most inclusive tools I have used. It is definitely worth the glance.
