Engadget's CSS blog lists 9 Firefox extensions that anyone who works with web technology should check out. Some you might have heard of already, others you may not.
Firefox extensions I couldn't live without
So, I would like to publicly profess my love to several Firefox extensions. They make my life as a web developer so much happier and easier, than I wonder how I ever trudged through web-developer-life without them.

- Web Developer - The absolute must-have extension for anyone who builds web sites, no matter how small or few and far between.
- MeasureIt - No more eyeballing pixel widths!
- ColorZilla - I shudder to think back on the huge PITA of getting hex codes for colors before this lovely extension... taking a screenshot, pasting it into Photoshop, using the eyedropper tool... how much time have I saved because of it? (Answer: lots.)
- FireBug - As mentioned on The Javascript Weblog; just darn useful.
- IE View - All the maddening bugs of IE without actually having to launch the browser. (With the caveat that it doesn't do me much good on my Mac at work, where I don't have IE/Mac installed.)
- Live HTTP Headers - Go along for the ride from user interface to server and back, making all local stops.
- EditCSS - Modify currently loaded stylesheets.
- Cookie Crumbler - Convenient way to quickly clear cookies from a domain.
- Clear Cache Button - Another small convenience that makes a big difference.
