Page Inspector In Visual Studio 2012

The Page Inspector is a Web development tool that simulates a browser experience and runs entirely within Visual Studio. That is to say, you can select the Page Inspector to be your default browser instead of IE, Firefox, or Chrome. While running in debug mode, you can use the Page Inspector to alter CSS rules, change text, and make live changes to the DOM without having to switch back and forth between your browser and Visual Studio (see Figure 1)

Page Inspector provides integrated browser diagnostic tools that allow you to see where UI elements are derived from the underlying source code.

Let’s look at a very simple example. I created a new Project using the ASP.NET 4.5 to demonstrate asp.net New Feature Page Inspector
