How to save firebug changes using Eclipse (Windows)? - css

How to save firebug changes using Eclipse (Windows)?
I found here that it's possible to save firebug changes if we use Eclipse and FireEclipse
Is anyone using this combination successfully? Can anyone explain the step of Installing?
I'm on Windows7 64 bit
And if FireEclipse works with Eclipse then Will it also work with Aptana port of Eclipse?

First, whether it will work on Aptana? Yes, it should.
Now to the main question: The Fireclipse site claims contrary to what the answer you have linked to cites: the FE site claims that it mainly helps in debugging javascript through Firebug and Eclipse consoles (nothing about exporting/saving CSS changes).
Also, I wouldn't really recommend going with this plugin 'coz it hasn't been updated in a while. According to SourceForge (where the source of this project is hosted), Fireclipse was last updated 2008-10-22. Unless, you are still using Firefox 2 and Eclipse 3.2, you should avoid this plugin.
Try some of the other tools listed in that thread, for example, FireDiff sounds promising.

This is how i save my firebug changes.

Hope this helps.

accessing magnolia resources using NetDrive

I would like to edit some STK-Templates. I use NetDrive to access magnolia resources but this doesn't work, see the screenshot:
What did I do workng?
I also tried this tutorial, but after restarting tomcat server nothing change. plz helpppp
I just tried tried Magnolia-5.2.4 with magnolia-module-webdav-2.0 on Windows and BitKinex version 3.2.3. It works without any problems.
But from screenshot which you posted originally I see you are using version prior Magnolia5 (4.4.x, 4.5.x).
Works fine on mac.
I don't have Windows nor the netDrive, but looking at the screenshot I believe your connect URL is wrong. According to documentation it should be http://<host name\[:port\]>/<magnolia context>/.webdav/<workspace> not just http://localhost.
The page you mentioned above links to http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/display/DOCS45/WebDAV+module which imho explains that nice and clean. Try less hating and more reading ;)
Also answered in magnolia WebDAV doesn't work
HTH,

PhantomJS compile with WebGL

I am trying to compile PhantomJS to add WebGL. Apparently it is possible because of:
post on groups.google.com
post on trac.webkit.org
However, I have no idea how to do this. I have looked in all the configuration for compiling and I tried and found nothing.
Should I compile QTWebKit separately with the necessary options and then compile PhantomJS with this WebKit?
I'm on Mac OSX Lion.
It would be really nice to have a bit of help.
As you well may know, Phantomjs has is no longer being actively developed.
I suggest you move to Puppeteer which uses Chromium: https://pptr.dev/
This was opened by ariya who also commented on the Google Groups thread as a GitHub issue.
According to this comment by a project collaborator on that issue:
That's not that easy. WebGL requires OpenGL. OpenGL requires XCB on Linux. That means that you will not be able to use PhantomJS in full headless environment. I doubt that this will be implemented in near future.
It seems to me like this is the final answer to the OP's question. The OP has not addressed whether SlimerJS would actually work in their situation.

Qt5 directshow plugin (dsengine.dll) is not built under Windows7

I’ve tried to build the directshow multimedia plugin in Qt5 under Windows7, however, there is a problem that qedit.h is not found, as this file was removed from WindowsSDK 7.1 (which is the one I am required to use to build Qt5).
So I tried to follow this post here.
Just adding this qedit.h (from what I see it just needs the IID_ISampleGrabber and CLSID_SampleGrabber and that’s it) and recompiling. It linked alright, but when I run my application, if I try to play video it just doesn’t do a damn thing, and if I try to access the camera it just quits the application right away. Since I have no idea about the inner workings of DS, I don’t know how legitimate this fix is.
How do I fix this?
Thanks.

Xrefresh alternative

i am using Netbeans PHP + Firefox 4 on Windows for my web development.
I've used a common firebug extension called Xrefresh. It was automaticlly refreshing my opened firefox tab everytime change in my projects directory occured, so pressing ctrl+s in netbeans was triggering auto-refresh in the browser. Very comfort way to work with css, almost live preview.
But now since new Firefox and Firebug versions Xrefresh doesn't work anymore and the question is - are therey any good alternatives, or does someone know how to configure Xrefresh now?
Without live preview my development is somehow slower.

This could help you. It refreshes the page via ajax on css save.
There's an automatic refresh-on-change tool for IE. It's called ReloadIt, and is available at http://reloadit.codeplex.com . Free.
Not an add-on to IE, but more of an "adjunct". It does not change the IE install, does not install a BHO or anything like that. So very low-impact installation.
You choose a URL that you'd like to auto-reload, and specify one or more directory paths to monitor for changes. Press F12 to start monitoring.
After you set it, minimize it. Then edit your content files. When you save, the page gets reloaded. like this:
I've managed to keep using xrefresh up until Firefox 9 however I'm not having any luck with version 10.
I've now switched to livereload, they've had a decent Mac version out for a while and a very experimental Windows version has recently been released.

Plugin like CSS-X fire for other IDEs

I'm using the PhpStorm IDE, and it has a wonderful plugin called CSS-X fire that integrates with firebug: whenever I make changes in the CSS via Firebug, and the PhpStorm project is open, the plugin makes PhpStorm aware of the cahnge, and enables me to apply it in the code.
My question is if there is a similar plugin for other IDEs (such as Visual Studio) or editors (such as Notepad++), since I'm not sure we're going to buy PhpStorm, and we also have projects not in PHP.
Have a look at cssUpdater. It is a CSS-X-Fire spin-off that works directly on selected files rather than communicating with the IDE.
Using CssUpdater with Visual Studio 2012 worked great for me. You only need to install firefox addon CssUpdater and sync the files you are going to work on.
