What happened to "Links and Forms" add-on. I can't view the input fields since I upgraded to FF48

I've been using Mozilla FF for many years, and was a bit disappointed when you removed the "Form" tab from the "view page info" selection. Luckily there was a add-on here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/links-and-forms/?src=search I've been using that to assist me with web-development. I recently switched to FF48, had to "refresh firefox" due to some strangeness and lags with FF and reinstall all my add-ons. Just found out "links and form" tab is no longer working. I even tried the 49 beta, it doesn't work there either.

I'm not familiar with that extension and considering the time since last update, its author might not be maintaining it any more...

There might be a similar add-on by now. If not, I'm aware that the venerable Web Developer extension can open a new tab with the form and field information. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/web-developer/

Hmm... I tried the tool you provided. Think I like it. Definitely more tools, and has the form inputs I was looking for. Going to take some getting used to. Thanks.

When you are trying to find issues on other peoples' sites, I find

CSS > View CSS Information > View JavaScript

very useful for quickly searching across all sources on a site. Having to search one file at a time is really annoying.
