An essential tool for flex development. Flex is used to set up external browsers.

First, let's talk about how to set the default external browser of flex. When I started to learn flex, I always open windows IE browser by default because of flex.

Choose WINDOW> preferences> General> web browser to set the browser as an external browser Firefox. Why is it Firefox?
Because Firefox's unparalleled plug-in for flex development is awesome, comfortable, and enjoyable ......

First, install Firefox.

Below we will install several plug-in tools for Ox X.

Flash play10. For Firefox... debug version.
Click Here http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/10/flashplayer_10_plugin_debug.exe this is an old link address. It may expire some day, but remember to install the flashplayer debug version for Firefox. You can search by yourself if it is invalid. Miss Macromedia!

Open Firefox, search for and install the three extensions httpfox, flashtracer, and cache status on the Firefox extension component site https://addons.mozilla.org/zh-CN/firefox/.

After the debug Flash Player is installed, the flash tracer can displayProgramDebug information output using the trace () statement. The httpfox plug-in can not only view the HTTP communication process and data, but also see what content is read from the cache. In addition, the cache status plug-in allows us to conveniently manage the cache. In the flex development process, you often need to clear the content in the cache before you can see the effect of new changes.

After reading the plug-in described above, you must be excited. The accessories of cool X are not only used for development and learning of flex. Web development is also quite effective.

Finally, we recommend two Firefox plug-ins.
