Tech Tip: Edit Any Web Page
assertTrue( ) documented an amazing trick: In Firefox, you can make any page editable. Granted, the changes aren't permanent, but with this trick you can make minor changes to a page before taking a screenshot, or you can show someone how edited text should look on the page without copying the page into another program.
All you need to do is copy this code into the address bar and hit enter:
javascript:document.designMode="on";void(0);
Then start editing.
In seconds, I can transform the IllinoisLegalAid.org Form Library from its original form into a shorter, cleaner version for a handout or presentation.

To turn it off, reload the page (or get fancy with Greasemonkey). - K
