If you have the 'Web Developer' extension choose Outline > Outline Current
Element.  That'll show the path in the status bar (inclusive of class/ID
info) to elements you hover over with the mouse pointer.

Afternoon all,

I'm doing a lot of CSS work on complex menus that involves referencing
classes absolutely such as this:

ul.navMenu .ul.MenuChildren .ul.MenuChildren a {
  blah blah blah
}

I'm currently using firefox's dom explorer to find the full path to the
elements i'm styling which can be a long winded process when the menu is 4
or 5 levels deep and i'm looking for one particular element :(

What i'm looking for a nice firefox extension that will be able to show the
absolute path to the element which i can c&p into my style sheet.

Does anyone know if such a thing exists?

Cheers
Matt
