CSS Refresh

While developing a web application, I often need to reload a whole site for every change I do in its CSS file, only to test it. Under Firefox I used to change manually the href in links (well, in fact, with Firebug) to add some query string, in order to by-pass the cache and request the brand-new version of the file. This job was often harder than that, since I'm still maintaining some old school applications using frames (Eek!).

While writing my jQuerify Bookmarklet I thought this CSS refresher is the perfect job for a bookmarklet, so I ended writting the CSS Refresh Bookmarklet.

jQuery Bookmarklet

It's kind of an obsession. You mix a somehow usual browsing session with some GREAT tools like a real browser, Firebug and jQuery and - Voilà! - you can do virtually anything.

You can fight the DOM, add events, modify every web as if it was your own. A la Seamonkey, if you want, but more hand-made. Please welcome... jQuerify.
