I am trying to style four input controls to looks like the below image any help to get me started would be great
If using Chrome, open dev tools (F12), navigate to the 'Elements' tab, select the 'inspect element' tool on the top left (shortcut: cmd+shift+C) and hover over and then click on the input controls.
This will display the styling that goes in to creating that element, and you can try your hand at replicating it from there.

When i go to Inspect on Google Chrome, i have the HTML and CSS sections in parallel as shown below.
How can i move the CSS part to the bottom while keeping the HTML part above, as shown below?
Click the nail > Set 'Panel layout' to horizontal
Here is where you are gonna set your panel horizontal
I hope helped you.
I had the same question this evening. All the answers I found kept trying to describe how to move the entire Dev Tools panel. But what you and I actually want is to adjust the inner panels.
Here is what I did:
Click on the settings GEAR in the upper right-hand corner of Developer Tools. It's the little donut-looking thing. This will bring up a full-screen SETTINGS panel.
Click on the PREFERENCES option (if it isn't already selected).
In the APPEARANCE option group, look for the Panel layout dropdown.
Change the Panel layout selection to horizontal.
That did it for me this evening. Hope it helps you.
Sorry, I'm not including screenshots — I've got to get back to work!
First, you need click 3 dots. Then you select your desired dock side.
you need to click 3 dot on right side of devTools and select dock side
This is my project when I am in Inspect Element model in Safari:
You can see the editor.css link on the right.
After I click the link, I come to editor.css detail:
But I don't know how to go back. Some one know how to go to the page (
go to the first snapshot )
Yes, you just click on the first button at superior menu(dev tools menu, reading left to right. It has a reactangle icon). The button next to the inspector button(it is highlithed blue on the first screenshot)
Is it possible to style autocompletion boxes that appear under text inputs? I'd like to change background color and border.
It is possible to do this by using javascript.
Another way to do this is by opening up your developer tools.. "View - Developer - Developer Tools" using the magnifying glass to hover your element, get the class or ID name and make direct edits in the right hand side, then paste that code within your stylesheet. ( sounds harder than it is! )
When I'm working on a web page layout, I often use Firefox and Firebug to tweak the CSS until it looks right, then modify my style sheet to match.
Right now, I'm trying to fix something that looks fine in other browsers but wrong in Google Chrome. I have pulled up Chrome's Developer Tools, and can inspect the computed style, but don't see a way to edit values and see the results on my page.
Is there a way to do this?
Yes. For CSS, for example, you double click on the property in the right pane. For HTML, right click on an element and select "Edit as HTML".
I want to debug the CSS for a DHTML menu, but the element I want to debug is a submenu, so it only appears when the top element in the menu is clicked.
So I can't use that button on Firebug that shows the CSS for the next element clicked, because when I click on the top menu item it will show the CSS for that element, not its child, and if I expand the menu first and then click on the Firebug button the submenu disappears (it disappears when it loses focus).
Any tips on how to get out of this catch-22?
Use firebug console command line to run click event. Like $('#menutab a').click(); If it's needed, you could also set breakpoint to avoid hidding.

Select your element in the HTML tab, directly in the source.
Then, you can hover your page to toggle it.
In cases like this I sometimes alter the script slightly in order for the 'hidden' element to stay visible.
In this case, I would perhaps comment out/disable the script code which hides the element on blur. That way you can click the main element, and inspect the now visible item for as long as needed.
What about debuging with all the buttons visible? Or you can still find the elemnt in the HTML tree.
In Opera, you can use Dragonfly (Tools > Advanced > Developer Tools, or Ctrl+Shift+i) to solve this issue. When the tools are active, clicking on any part of the page will navigate to that section of the HTML side-by-side with its CSS.
