FiddlerCap

You can install an add-in for Internet Explorer, FiddlerCap, which will allow you to intercept and monitor data between the internet and a computer, before your web browser or an outside server receives the data.

When FiddlerCap is run you'll see the option 'Start Capture' which will open a new IE tab. Enter in the address of a web site.

After sessions have been captured click 'Stop Capture' back in Fiddler. FiddlerCap is a simplified version of the Fiddler web traffic inspection tool. It is designed to allow a general user to save a .saz file which can be forwarded to an expert for analysis.

The Printliminator

The Printliminator is a bookmarklet that can be used to customize print versions of web pages. I tested it tonight with with Internet Explorer. It's available at, https://css-tricks.github.io/The-Printliminator/ . Simply drag the bookmarklet onto the links part of the browser (in IE look for the yellow star icon on the left.)

When you click on the bookmarklet a small dialog box will appear. If you select 'ADD PRINT STYLES', red boxes will appear around the various sections of your current web page. Clicking on any one box will remove it from the browser. If you press ALT and click on a red box it will be isolated in the browser so you can print just it alone.

Ignore the option in the Printliminator dialog box to 'SEND TO PRINT'. Instead use the regular print function in your browser.

Jump to a scroll position on a web page

If you want a link to a web page and jump to a particular scroll position on the page, you can make a simple adjustment to the web address. On the web page you're linking to, right click and select 'View Page Source' (in Chrome), or just 'View Source' in Internet Explorer. Look for an anchor point and its associated name with the reference: <a href="

After the page's URL enter a hash tag followed by the anchor position's name (without quotes). See for example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_More#Legacy

Clicking on this link will not take us to top of the Wikipedia page for Thomas More, but instead bring us directly to the section discussing his legacy. It is possible to link to any position on a web page which has a '<a' anchor.
