    Very nice extension, but I think you should be able to click a small arrow or something so it expands because right now I don’t need it all the time, and it takes up to much space.

    Suggestion: Add option for clearing cache and cookies. I frequently have to clear Chrome’s cache while I work on my website.

  3. AnotherGuy says:

    This is pretty decent, but it causes a slight issue after resizing. The window seems to duplicate itself at a slightly larger size just behind the original window. Here is a screenshot:

    Hi!

    This is a great plugin, I use the W3C Validator a lot, now I just have to press one button to check if a page validates. :)

    Small feature request though… I’d like to have this open (all buttons showing) by default, could you add an option for this? Or maybe make the plugin “remember” it’s state somehow?

  5. Suggestions:
    - Option to make it an embedded toolbar like the firefox web developer add-on?
    - This one’s hard, but adding javascript testing functionality.
    - Element highlighting on mouseover

    I pretty much would love to see the firefox web developer add-on for chrome, that would complete my total transition to chrome as a developer.

  6. webbed says:

    Currently working on an options menu, will be released by the end of the week.

    - Element Highlighting is available by opening the Web Developer Tools (Ctrl + Shift + J)
    - Developer Tools also includes JavaScript Debugging Tools

    Still trying to work out the Show Cookies, it was my first reason for starting to develop the addon as going into the menu is too much of a hassle. From what I have seen in the documentation it may not be possible but there have been a few Chrome updates since I started so I will be looking thoroughly again.

    Love all the feed back so far, I agree with most of it. Keep it coming and I will keep trying to implement it.

    I love this extension.

    But I was looking for a function to disable css styles. It would be cool.

  8. Adam Jorgensen says:

    This just doesn’t seem to work in my current build of Chromium (4.0.232.0 (30803)) running on Linux

  9. Murray says:

    Doesn’t work for me under linux either. Icon shows but nothing happens when I click it. :(

  10. Google Chrome already has this type of function..

    I found it out a few days ago..

    Click on the Page icon, then go to Developer tools, and click on Developer Tools.
    OR
    Just right click on an element (like a text field) and click on Inspect Element.

    It should let you edit the HTML in the document (like FireBug) including Text Fields, password fields, images, and more!

    Have fun ^^

    If you need a video tutorial, please ask!

  11. webbed says:

    All Page Action Extensions will not work under linux (or at least the 3 I have tried). I would guess this is a bug Google are still trying to fix.

  12. Humpparitari says:

    Most plugins seem to be moving to browser actions, maybe you could move (or add the option to do so) this one as well? Maybe have the buttons appear in a drop-down box, otherwise they’d take up a lot of space.

  13. Humpparitari says:

    Crap, sorry. :P

    Mine wasn’t updating properly…

    something I would like to see is a ftp feature, could it be added soon?

  15. kurtextrem says:

    This is not a devloper extension!
    the includet developer tools of google chrome are really better than this!

    lg,

    @ Fighterlegend & kurtextrem

    This uses Chrome’s built-in view-source tool. All this plugin does is add buttons for view-source and the W3C HTML and CSS validators. The validators aren’t included in Chrome’s developer tools, which is why I like this plugin.

    Webguruz is also a spambot.

    I like this extension. Hopefully it’ll get a bit more functionality from Firefox’s Web Developer!

  19. Jason says:

    Chrome’s “View Source” isn’t the developer tools.

    Go to Page/Developer Tools / Javascript Console

    From there you have control over DOM walking the entire document – which refreshes on AJAX calls, too. You can even JIT debug the javascript execution – AND change name/value pairs in any form element, inner HTML, whatever. It’s like Firebug – but faster, and cleaner.

    It’s not Google’s baby, though. Apple did it as part of the Webkit (Safari has the exact same thing); and Google is just using the same feature-set.

    It beats Firebug and anything else out there, though.

    Hi, It very nice and useful extension. But is it possible to add xPather to view elements path and find elements by xPath. I think it really useful for developers.

    Thank you for your work.

  21. Alex says:
