So I downloaded this tool that some one sent out that is a plug in tool bar for IE for developers from Microsoft. and my reaction is thus:

Hxly macril[sic]. This is cool. I played around with this on a number of sites I did in the past that did 'creative' things with DOM manipulation and this thing is really, really cool. So one thing I noticed is that it shows you the IE implementation of the DOM at that current instant and not necessarily what is first loaded (very cool feature) so for example as of the HTML 3 implementation you could do write operations client side that was not DHTML to build data driven menus even in the older 3v browsers that for the most part are neglected now days and then using the HTML 4 or DHTML object model you can then use addressable ranges to write out html construct’s client side and this thing shows you what is currently implemented... did I say this is cool... 3 thumbs up. :)

I did notice that it assumes the default HTML 4 standard for HTML even if the source is xHTML compliant which I think is the fault of IE not this tool which is the one thing about IE that bugs me but at least with this I can see it. :) Anyway this is cooler then the old JS debugger that went away with the 4.0 browser standard.

Again very, very cool. :) don’t leave home without this tool.
