CSS jQuery Basics (2014) Introduction to jQuery What is the DOM?

DOM in Firefox

Mozilla is my preferred browser. However, I can't get the same results as in chrome for practicing. I push Ctrl+Shift+J and the browser console pops up, but there's no where for me to type. I finally found a different tool, the developer toolbar under developer menu. When that's up, there's a wrench to the right I can click on. I click on that and I get the screen that has tabs inspector, console, debugger, style editor etc. Click on console and type in the stuff from this video but I'm not getting the same results. It says HTMLCollection [ <title ... with a little icon next to title that when clicked highlights the title in the inspector. Is this the DOM in Mozilla?

Hey Michael,

Firefox is also my browser of choice... except when I'm working on Treehouse. I just found it easier than figuring the differences between Chrome (which they use) and Firefox (which I prefer). Incidentally, when I'm in Firefox (Mac), Option + Command + C bring up a working console for me.

Every browser will be different, and everybody has their favorite... I just succumb and use Chrome for Treehouse lessons.

Keep Coding! :)
