Online Tools

Collection of online web development tools worth using.

I am looking for handy online tools. If you have some good bookmark to share, please comment this post.

List follows.

Browsers

  • IE NetRenderer Visualizes an image rappresenting your site as rendered with Internet Explorer. Useful for those of you using linux or for those of you using explorer 6 or 7 and wanting to see how the page looks like on IE 6 / 7 (the one you are not using). Can even show you the rendering difference between the two. Worth checking, decent speed and no queques.

Http

  • Cacheability Engine analyzes your page and lets you know if/how the contents are cachable.
  • Check Server Headers Tool prints out headers regarding an url. If a redirection prints out final page’s response as well.
  • Browser Emulator/Simulator Tool despite the name, it doesn’t emulate the rendering of the browser. It permits you to access your site from a (probably) another country, dissimulate referer, show the http headers, show the full source and page rendering (it doesn’t work very well, but guess it’s enough to test site content), send POST requests and more. Nice.
  • Seo-friendly redirect checker. Checks if your url performs a correct 301 redirect.
