how to use Firefox but pretend that I am using iPhone (to use Firebug to examine the page design)
Question
Is there a way to use Firefox and Firebug but pretend it is iPhone's Safari by faking the User Agent string? I want to use Firefox to examine the Amazon or Gmail sites and see how the page is laid out for iPhone... just for fun and for experiment. Is there a way? thanks?
Solution
You can fake the user agent string using the instructions great_llama provided, but remember that Firefox is not Safari and it probably won't lay out the page identically. If you're on a Windows or OS X machine you can use Safari to see how it will look with a higher degree of accuracy.
OTHER TIPS
Here are some instructions on how to do it.
Go to the emulator and you can run your dev version. You can then use firebug on the emulator frame
