This may be old news, but not to me. You might also be surprised that you can edit any web page live in your browser by using a bit of javascript. It is limited to text only.

Paste the following into your address bar:

javascript:document.body.contentEditable=’true’; document.designMode=’on’; void 0

Javascript Edit Webpage

I noticed this did not work in Gmail. This is tested and is known to work in Firefox 3 and IE7. [via blogstorm.co.uk]

    JFYI: Opera has allowed you to do this for years - just view the source, save it, then “refresh” the page. It’s much easier now though - you can view the source using Opera’s builtin HTML viewer, then just click the “Apply Changes” button at the top of the viewer. Dead handy.

    Actually, if you have use Firefox, and have two websites open on separate tabs in the same window, you can copy and paste an image from one to the other :-)
