Then go to the Firefox "extensions" site (see http://addons.mozilla.org) and load the following extensions: FireFTP (to manage file transfers from within FireFox), and Web Developer 1.0 (a suite of "must-have" web developer tools including Validators, CSS Editing and Viewing, Forms Management, and Image Controls). Follow the directions for installing the extensions -- quite simple... you just download them, then restart FireFox.
