Cool list tw33k. Repped.

FireBug
The most popular web development tool for Firefox
Firebug integrates with Firefox to put a wealth of development tools at your fingertips while you browse. You can edit, debug, and monitor CSS, HTML, and JavaScript live in any web page...

• Inspect HTML and modify style and layout in real-time
• Use the most advanced JavaScript debugger available for any browser
• Accurately analyze network usage and performance
• Extend Firebug and add features to make Firebug even more powerful
• Get the information you need to get it done with Firebug.

FireShot
FireShot is a Firefox extension that creates screenshots of web pages (entirely or just visible part).

Unlike other extensions, this plugin provides a set of editing and annotation tools, which let users quickly modify web captures and insert text annotations and graphical annotations. Such functionality will be especially useful for web designers, testers and content reviewers.

The captures can be:

- uploaded to FREE public screenshot hosting
- saved to disk (PNG, GIF, JPEG, BMP)
- printed
- copied to clipboard
- e-mailed
- sent to configurable external editor for further processing.

DownThemAll!
The first and only download manager/accelerator built inside Firefox!

Download Statusbar
View and manage downloads from a tidy statusbar - without the download window getting in the way of your web browsing.

Image Toolbar
Single-click access to common actions for images (e.g. saving, copying, printing). This extension is intended to provide a replacement for the equivalent toolbar in Internet Explorer.

Greasemonkey is probably the most important addon you can have. Grab it and head to Userscripts.org: Power-ups for your browser to download scripts for it.

I would add NoScript to this list. It is an excellent security tool.

A very good list by the way.

I use Firebug also. It helps in simply diagnosing problems.

IMHO, FireBug is the BEST debugging tool for Firefox

Why don't we add the list of addons that we think are the best to this thread ?

Thanks for the link. I had not visited that site.

Nice list and I second the excellent NoScript and AdBlock Plus; together make browsing the web idiot-proof -- almost Lol. My other two add-ons are the excellent DownloadHelper (awesome!) and RefreshEvery.
