Works like a charm. Exactly what I was looking for.

This is very useful, thanks very much… Actually I am surprised something like this is not in Firebug. I am using it to speed development of Conquer-on-Contact ;)

Very cool idea!
I had a problem with this when I first tried it because the page I was testing had link elements with a “rel” attribute of “Stylesheet” instead of “stylesheet” (or both actually). So I switched the 3rd line to:
links[i].rel.toLowerCase() === “stylesheet”

And just a side note… I thought I’d give a try to rewriting this using Prototype since all of the sites I work on include Prototype already (of course this is no longer a generic solution this way). Here’s what I came up with:
$$(‘link[rel=Stylesheet], link[rel=stylesheet]‘).each(function(link){link.href += (link.href.include(‘?’) ? ‘x’ : ‘?x’)});

Thanks again for the great idea!
