Download Firebug

To Download Firebug, switch over to Firefox browser and enter "Firebug for Firefox" into Google:

You will get something that looks like this:

The website I recommend is https://getfirebug.com/downloads which might be anywhere from the 3rd to the 4th one down on the search results.

Once on that site, click the most recent version which is 2.0.11 (as of the creation of this tutorial):

NOTE: If you have Norton Antivirus, you might get a warning, because I did. Go ahead and click continue to install.

It does not take long at all, maybe only 30 seconds or less.

Thank you Stephanie.
I have saved all of this, because as you know, I know nothing about HTML. :(
Be sure that I will come hollering if I get stuck one day.
I appreciate all your valuable tips and training.

Okay here is a dumb question. How do you switch over to Firefox browser?

Hi...I am sorry. I should have included that in the training. Go here to download Firefox

But I think you can also use Firebug in other browsers too. If you prefer Google Chrome is the download page:

And here is a download for IE:

Thank you Linda. I think it has potential to help those who do not want to take the risk of breaking their website by making a change in HTML. This way, they can create a draft form of what the changes will look like.

Will certainly look at this one. (Actually a firebug is someone who starts all these nasty bushfires in Oz!)

Do you the movie Wizard of Oz Helen? I don't remember anything called firebugs, but then again it has been a long time since I have seen the movie.
