CROA - Clear Read-Only Attributes

When you copy data from a CD-ROM to your PC, of course they copy as read-only. This may not a problem at first, but if you want to work on those files, you've got a lot of manual retagging ahead of you--file by file by file. CROA allows you to remove the read-only flags from folders, subfolders, and files and get down to business. Once installed, it's easy to access from Window's context menu.

Webnotes (NO DOWNLOAD) Just go here create your online space remember the URL and your done.

We often need to jot down a few quick notes to remind ourselves of some important pieces of information that we have to retain. Since this is the digital age, lets do it digitally. Taking notes on the computer is quicker for a large number of techies, and if we can easily share our thoughts with other people in an online environment, then we’ll probably come back repeatedly to pour out our stream of consciousness onto a digital sticky note. Webnote is an interesting collaborative tool that allows you to do just that.

The service provides a nice environment for keeping track of information, but you should know that what you create is open to the public - no password protection is present here. This will undoubtedly disturb many of you, but the idea of an open environment is pretty interesting. Just pass your Webnote URL around to friends or colleagues and they can jump in and act as an editor. You can create multiple notes, change the color of individual notes, and even use HTML in your entries. This, of course, means that you can include pictures and text formatting in your message to make it really stand out. Save the workspace when you're done and return at a later time. Even though the information is open to anyone who knows the name of your workspace, I still think that this is a tool worth experimenting with.

HTML Quick Edit Bar 1.3

HTML Quick Edit Bar - is a freeware toolbar for Microsoft Internet Explorer that allows you to edit the current HTML page within the browser itself (change the font color, size and face, text alignment, etc.). Once edited, HTML Quick Edit Bar allows you to upload the modified page to your web site via FTP. Another feature allows you to examine and manipulate the HTML tree (which will appear in the left pane of the browser) of the current document. Using this tree, you can change and remove HTML tags and their attributes. Dragging a special cursor over the page's HTML elements, enables you to observe the place of these elements in the tree. HTML Quick Edit Bar can be useful for anyone who uses Microsoft Internet Explorer, as it allows you to modify and examine HTML documents "on the fly" when browsing.

Nvu 0.9 An easy to use web editor

Finally! A complete Web Authoring System for Linux Desktop users as well as Microsoft Windows and Macintosh users to rival programs like FrontPage and Dreamweaver.

Nvu (pronounced N-view, for a "new view") makes managing a web site a snap. Now anyone can create web pages and manage a website with no technical expertise or knowledge of HTML.
vu is a new WYSIWYG HTML editor from the Linspire company, based on the old Mozilla Composer. It was developed primarily for Linux but is also available for Windows and Mac.

It looks very similar to Macromedia Homesite but adds features from the likes of Dreamweaver, such as the ability to drag and drop images onto the page and the visual creation of tables.

Although best suited to individuals with little or no HTML skills, it is equally useful for more experienced coders as it allows full manipulation of the generated HTML code.

Some of its more interesting features include a 'tag preview' view, which provides a visual representation of all the table tags on a page, and auto-form creation.

Note: The link above is for the Windows installer. To download the Mac or Linux version please click here.

Firefox Beyond the Box

You've downloaded Firefox and love what you see. If you haven't extended it or modified it in any way, "You ain't seen nothin' yet!" (to quote Al Jolson). Some of the more fun things you can do with Firefox are to extend it, customize it, and tweak it.

If those three words freak you out, relax. Take a couple of breaths. For a long time, folks thought Firefox was a browser for techies. Yes, it has techie stuff that happens behind the scenes, but that doesn't affect your ability to have a great browsing experience. I'll walk you through a few steps to become more comfortable with taking Firefox beyond its basic setup
NOTE I have tried a lot of these extensions on my copy of Firefox and they work just as it says on the tin. I recommend you try AutoCopy if you do a lot of copy and pasting
