TIPP: Replace default xray plugin to westciv xray 0.91a

Post by tomsolo »

Westciv XRAY is a bookmarklet javascript for Internet Explorer 6+, and Webkit and Mozilla based browsers (including Safari, Firefox, Camino or Mozilla). Use it to see the box model for any element on any web page.

Webuilder and other Blumentals product use a similar -simply - javascript.

If u want a replace this plugin:

1, download location the script http://westciv.com/xray/thexray.js
2, rename xray.js
3, copy/overwrite - before backup old xray.js - your installed program data folder
(eg C:\Program Files\Webuilder2007\data\)

Limitation:
This plugin work only IE preview.
(If use as bookmarklet, work many browser (ff, ie, safari)

Here a screenshot:

Cheers

This is amazing :) WeBuilder in fact does not use "older" version of xray, we have written our own xray system based on the concept of original xray efforts.

I think it is the simplicity of our own xray and the way it is called that allows to use the xray from westciv in WeBuilder so easy.
