Installing the Plug-in

The IE Developer Toolbar can be downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads. After you have downloaded and installed the toolbar, it is quite simple to get started. Go to the View menu and select Toolbars, Developer Toolbar. This will provide us with the toolbar at the top of IE.
