Firefinder for Firebug for Firefox for Fiddling with jQuery

15. September 2009

Tonight I created my first Screenr screencast showcasing the Firefinder Add-on for the popular Firebug Add-on for the even more popular Firefox browser :) Whew, that was a mouth full!

Firefinder is a helpful tool when creating a selector for jQuery, which is usually where you start for most jQuery work. In the following screencast I show how to use Firefinder in conjunction with the Firebug console window in order to add some animation effects to my blog on the mouse over and mouse out events.

I hope you found this screencast helpful. There are many Firebug Add-ons that are useful for web development and I hope to extend this series to include several of the others.

If you enjoyed the above screencast I would appreciate it if you could retweet it by clicking the following and posted it to your Twitter account… thanks :)

Very nice, Elijah. I have firefinder, but I've never really known how to use it properly. Thanks for showing me.

Christ & CreativeNotice, I am glad you enjoyed the screencast. I hope to make others as well ;)

Jeffrey, I am glad to be in your contest. If I don't win anything, I hope that I grow as a developer and presenter in the process.

Robert, I am honored that the developer of this plug-in add a comment to my website. Thanks for your hard work and effort in the development community!
