I should probably create a Firefox extension category ’cause well, I love them so. Especially the ones that help me do my job. Thanks to an article over at 456 Berea Street, I’ve found yet another Firefox extension to post about. It’s called HTML Validator and I heart, heart, heart it.

It places a little icon down at the bottom of the status bar and lets you know if a page is valid, invalid or has errors. My site has errors due to some javascript. I know this because there is a little alert icon with an exclamation point in it. Kit Simons, I’m jealous, his site has a green checkmark. Google and several other sites I’ve visited get red x’s. Red, yellow, green—like a stoplight. The nice thing about this nifty plug-in is it shows where in your source code there are errors. How great is that?

Okay, so I’m officially wearing my geek badge right now but I can’t help it. If you had any idea how many web pages I touch in an eight hour day, you’d be excited about anything that made your job easier.

About Me

My name’s Jen; I’m a cynical, sarcastic, ex-drummer who is fond of dark humor. I've held way too many factory & retail jobs but finally found my calling one Christmas holiday in a dark, musty basement. I am now a CSS & XHTML web standards looney and can be found daily—when I’m not at my Mac—at the local fair-trade coffee shop buying an iced-soy mocha no matter the temperature.

I am also the owner of Pop Stalin Design specializing in CSS & XHTML web design as well as custom WordPress themes.
