Thanks for mentioning that in #6, spared me the trouble...
A "lazy" way I exploit Web Developer's Tools is to "view partial source" of an interesting-looking HTML effect, hilite & copy to a desktop file, and simply copy it from there when desired. Saves a lot of scribbling on file cards....
That reminds me, for those with Internet Explorer 5.5, here are some very helpful downloads, with descriptions:
Internet Explorer 5.5 Service Pack 1 and Internet Tools
Download Internet Explorer 5.5 Service Pack 1 and Internet Tools. This version of Internet Explorer includes improved support for DHTML and CSS, which gives Web architects greater control over browser appearance and behavior. Enjoy the ability to preview Web pages exactly as they will appear when printed. Internet Explorer 5.5 Service Pack 1 (SP1) makes it easier than ever to connect to the Internet and find the information you need. With Internet Explorer 5.5 SP1, you can use Connection Manager as your default dialer when Dial-Up Networking is already installed.
These two tools help the Web developer or those who are just curious about how pages are coded. The DOM tree tool lets you view all the Document Object Model properties in tree form via right click or the tools menu. And for those who are tired of scrolling through hundreds of lines of HTML to find that one section of code that does what you want, search no more! Simply highlight the area of Web page that you want to see the source for, right click on it and select "View Partial Source." It's that simple! Not supported by Microsoft. Give it a try.
