Using JSView, you can view not only HTML source of page you are opened, but also external files attached to the webpage like CSS and JavaScript. So whenever you open some cool blog design, you can see how that page was built by analyzing its source code.

ColorZilla
I use ColorZilla to find the hexcode of a color. Let’s say you are in the middle of CSS script writing and stuck because you don’t know the hexcode of a color you’d like to use? Find a similar color on the web, then use ColorZilla to get the code. No need to boot up Photoshop.
MeasureIt
We can simply say that MeasureIt is a web ruler. You can measure (in pixels) any web element open on the browser window using MeasureIt. I use it to check my design element’s width and height so that everything lines up perfectly.
FontFinder
We all know that typography is an essential element in design. In terms of web design, a beautiful font is not enough.
It should be a web standard font (common font which is available on most computers) too. So, rather than get confused by finding some kick ass font combination for your design, you can simply browse the web, find a site whose typography fascinates you, highlight it, right click it, open FontFinder to find the combination used.
You can then base the typography in your own design on the site you’ve found.
IE Tab
IE can be a nightmare to work with (especially IE6). It has a different method of rendering CSS soour beautiful design on Firefox could be your worst nightmare in IE.
Using IE Tab, you could check your design’s appearance on IE in Firefox window so you don’t need to open IE. This saves you time from loading up the browser.
Window Resizer
There are loads of variations out there. Some of the most common are 800×600, 1024×768, 1280×800, 1280×1024, and 1600×1200, but even higher screen resolutions exist. Your design could looks perfect in 1280×800 but at the same time annoy people with 1024×768 screen resolution because they have to scroll to left or right your site.
Stop making silly mistakes. Check your design appearance in all screen resolutions using Widow Resizer.
Scrapbook
Bookmarking some beautiful sites for reference is cool. The problem is, what if the webmaster closes the site or changes the website’s design?
Scrapbook helps you by storing any cool webpage you find and saving it in your browser for you to look at any time.
GridFox
960 Grid is web development template created by dividing 960 pixels web page into 12 or 16 columns. It is a very useful system to make your web layout neat.
The original 960 grid system CSS framework was created by Nathan Smith. GridFox lets you overlay a grid onto the current webpage to see how everything fits into the layout.
