Hey gang...
You all probably already know about this...
but for those of you who don't, check out and install the Firefox Web Developer's toolbar.
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/60/

It's a great way to take a peek at the behind the scenes source code on drupal sites... especially the ones that look good... and not so much like a blog. :)

I use the "Outline Block Level Elements" all the time.
Also, the "Display ID & Class Details"

I just heard about another Firefox extension that I'm going to check out too... haven't installed it yet though.
It lets you view source code in a better formatted view or something... I'll review my notes and post it back here.

later,
-Jeff

View Source Chart add-on for Firefox

Another good one...
The View Source Chart for viewing the rendered html.

It color codes and break everything into blocks as well.
It also shows the html output from any javascript includes.
So comparing the regular view source with this one can be helpful... especially when you're working on styling the output from those javascript includes.

It's worth checking out.
