Web pages are just documents that your web browser displays. But what if you could write directly on any web page to modify it? You can, and you don't need a browser extension, it's a built-in feature in all modern browsers. When you're happy with the results, you can move the final text to the code editor so you can keep your changes.
Once you close or reload the page, the changes will disappear; you'll only see the changes on your computer and you won't be editing the actual website itself. If Opera is your favorite browser, you're not far behind when it comes to editing text on websites on the Internet.

To make further changes or even modify your edits, simply follow the steps above to reopen the text editor box. They are usually a set of tools that open the internal development panel of the web browser, giving you the opportunity to edit what you are viewing. This step-by-step tutorial explains how you can easily edit the content of any web page with Developer Tools. If you're a content writer, editing the text on a web page can help you generate ideas and create several scripts before choosing the best one.
Web pages are read-only, but I knew that it is possible to edit the content of a web page directly in your web browser. If you are familiar with HTML tags, you can use the same technique not only to edit text on web pages, but also to replace images, change formatting styles, and much more.
