Some developers prefer to pop up web site in Internet Explorer browser when hit F5 because you do not have to manually click “Stop” button every time they finished debugging.
Other developers prefer to run web site in Firefox browser because it supports Firebug Add-In.
For me, I am currently using Internet Explorer to develop web site. But when I know that Firefox supports debugging website more effective with Firebug plugin. So, personally ,I decide to change to run website with default browser to be FF.
How can I change this?
