IE Shortcuts for debugging 3rd party applications..

May 2nd, 2008 by

This is mostly a reminder for myself. But here are some useful shortcuts/tips for working in IE.

CTRL-I : brings up the favorites menu, this is useful on those pop-ups that dont have upper menus to enable right clicking for viewing source…

Bookmarklet for enabling right click: javascript:void(document.oncontextmenu=null)

Bookmarklelt for enabling the Firebug Lite console: http://remysharp.com/2007/03/13/firebug-in-ie-for-any-web-site/

Also another useful setting is setting in ie options that new windows open in tabs verse a pop up. This helps by
allowing you to quickly/easily access bookmarklets/plug-ins like ie dev bar.
