Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar

Oh my! Today I found something really useful, something that I've seen for FireFox, but never so far for Internet Explorer. We are currently creating AJAX applications and we usually need some tools in order to see how is a given page rendered, how it will look like on 800 x 600 resolution, validate CSS and HTML, etc. As I pointed out, so far only the FF developers could benefit of such toolbox, but not anymore!

I tried Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar which is all this about. Among its features you will find:
-- Validate HTML, CSS, WAI, and RSS Web feed links.
-- Explore and modify the document object model (DOM) of a Web page.
-- Locate and select specific elements on a Web page through a variety of techniques.
-- Display image dimensions, file sizes, path information, and alternate (ALT) text.
-- Selectively clear the browser cache and saved cookies. Choose from all objects or those associated with a given domain.

Currently, it is in Beta 2 and is free. You can download it from here. Enjoy!
