How to save changes to Google Chrome inspect element?

[Steve Randy]

The "Inspect element" tool is for web developers, to allow them to inspect their website (inspecting websites with this tool is a great learning tool, too, imo), and make changes on the fly. Once you refresh the page, the changes are gone -- and that's totally normal (and the expected) behavior.

In short, you can't save changes made with the element inspector (the web just doesn't work that way!). However, what you can do is this:

If you have access to the website's source, change it.
Use "User Scripts" in Chrome, and use Javascript to make a one-off tweak to the website, forever fixing it =]

fyi, I use User Scripts all the time (I write my own ones), and come in really handy.

I've included two references. One is a link to how to enable/use User Scripts, and the other is a link to a Greasemonkey reference/tutorial. Greasemonkey is the User Scripts API/extension system used by Firefox -- but the User Scripts used in Chrome and Firefox are so similar, I figure its still relevant to link it.

Hope this helps!
