Your Primary Development Browser

[Tilluss]

I'm curious as to what the OcUK web devs use as their primary development browser.

I've been using firefox for a long time due to it having the luxury of the firebug add-on. I really wanted to use chrome and the only reason i didn't was because of the lack of this feature.. that was until I realised chrome had the same feature built actually built in this morning.

So now I use chrome due to it being fast and using instanced process tabs.

What do you use and your reasons why?

Firefox + Firebug + Web Developer.

I'm currently using IETester to test IE 5.5 / 6 but I will set up Win2K and Win XP VMs.

What do people without access to Macs do?

Use the windows versions of the browsers?

It's good to see that most use firefox with firebug, I thought that would be the case but I was interested anyway.

If anyone was interested in trying out the chrome version of firebug then just right click on a page and click 'Inspect Element' in chrome and it will popup. You can also dock it using one of the buttons at the bottom, and if you want to pause a script at a breakpoint or exception, go into scripts and click 'Pause On Exceptions' at the bottom (looks like a stop sign with a pause on it).

Thanks for the feedback
