Please provide me some good references or web pages which you recommend for development of Firefox Addons.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/Overlay_Extensions/XUL_School : Very detailed. Is tried to be always up do date.
http://lifehacker.com/264490/how-to-build-a-firefox-extension
http://www.softwaredeveloper.com/features/firefox-extension-resource-072307/ : Basically a link list.

I use the Netbeans Plugin Foxbeans which streamlines the whole development process.

Komodo Edit has some functionality that is useful. It has auto completion for XUL tags and also can generate a skeleton structure for you.

You can use Add-on SDK or Add-on BUilder (see: http://mzl.la/addonsdk) that simplify a lot the process of creating addon, especially for beginner, and for simple addon doesn't require specific platform knowledge (e.g. XUL)

Also, to set up the best possible development environment, check the instructions
and/or use a quick help

The best way to start with the development is to go through the examples so that you can understand. Follow this link for some good examples

I've been scouring the web since I got home from work, and to no avail I've yet to find a working Adobe Brackets SFTP(Preferably) or FTP extension.
If anyone know's of one that I've possibly missed, please hook me up!
The FTP-Sync extension is newer and more actively maintained than the one mentioned in other answers. Give it a try!
Found the new best one! eqftp. This is better because it allows you to browse the server. Version 0.7 adds support for sftp as well.
https://github.com/Equals182/eqFTP
Since this was marked as the right answer I will also say that even though this is the best brackets plugin, I have found that atom's Remote FTP is the best and most reliable sftp editor I have found: https://atom.io/packages/remote-ftp
A decent workaround is to use Brackets as default editor in Cyberduck.
I suggest it could be worth trying https://github.com/bigeyex/brackets-sftp-upload . They seems to be actively working.
Have you looked at https://github.com/theproducer/brackets-ftp? The support seems a little bit basic for now, but this seems to be a good start.
Nothing available yet that I know of - I'm looking for the same thing. The https://github.com/theproducer/brackets-ftp is promising but still a long ways from being a solution. Hopefully soon!

Espresso has live preview feature which shows live changes of code as we write code.
I am searching for same feature in a tool for Windows?
Dreamweaver has that one, but doesn't support JS. Is there any other web editor or IDE?
The closest I know of is the IntelliJ platform (WebStorm/IntelliJ IDEA) with the live edit plugin. It works in combination with a Chrome plugin.
You can watch a demonstration of live edit in action here
Instructions for setting up the Chrome plugin are here.
Shameless plug: LIVEditor - the product name contains the word live, in order to emphasize its feature to show live html/css preview, which is, alone with the integrated Firebug-like html element inspector for showing applied css styles, the most important nature of this code editor.

I'm not sure that I'm using the correct language here so I will give some examples of web sites which I believe have 'Web 2.0'look and feel
https://www.yammer.com/
http://www.heroku.com/
https://foursquare.com/
http://24sevenoffice.com/
http://www.formassembly.com
They all have big text, big buttons, plus very slick and tasteful AJAX/CSS. My question is how is this look and feel assembled? Some possible ideas I have had:
. Underlying library such as jQuery/GWT
. Handled by web framework such as Rails/Django
. Coded completely from scratch
To me all the sites have sufficient similarity that there does seem to be some type of underlying common mechanism. The reason I'm asking is that as a developer I'm wondering if I can assemble a Web 2.0 looking site using some type of tool kit.
There are common frameworks and tools to help with the development, sure. You mention two of them. However, a tool alone isn't going to do it. Not unless you just entirely conform to some kind of brown-and-serve framework. (I don't know of any off-hand.)
Good look and feel comes from good UI/UX design. I'll bet that each of those example sites you gave has a talented graphic designer behind it (either on staff or contracted for making the site) who is proud of their creative work, and simply used some tools to help facilitate that work.
I have just discovered Bootstrap and this is exactly what I was looking for

Is there any forum software based on codeigniter ? free or commercial ?
I haven't tried either of these myself but i've heard very good things and you should take the time to investigate them both:
Dove Forums
Dove Forum is fairly new, but growing and seems to have fairly strong support from the Code Igniter community at the moment.
Pyro CMS
Pyro CMS is made by some of the top contributors to the Code Igniter community and gets alot of plaudits.
It's a fully fledged CMS rather than a forum script, but it has a forum add on which you can download to add that functionality.
You could check out MyForum (https://github.com/EllisLab/CodeIgniter/wiki/MyForum) - it is reasonably simple and I have had very good experiences with it in the past! It's free as well :)
Yep http://codeigniter.com/wiki/MyForum/ is nice and you can get all the necessary information about the coding and other practices using codeigniter over here.
not sure how helpful this is to you now, but Elite Bulletin Board(http://elite-board.us) is switching to CodeIgniter for their next version.
while its still in development, the code is in SVN if you wanted to look at it.

I'm interested in finding good icons/images that can be used in both 'free' and proprietary programs.
Please include a description of any license restrictions associated with the source of the icons you suggest.
I use two search engines:
IconFinder and IconLook.
If you can't find what you want, this blog post has a list of great resources.
I've used Silk Icons (http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/silk/) on a few projects. It's covered under the creative commons license so you will have to include a link back to the site somewhere in your app.
http://www.iconarchive.com has a nice selection
I used Fontawesome to find icons.
I've had the best luck with Icon Buffet and StockIcons
A good starting point, and a nice stock icon site. Some require payment, but there are lots of free sources out there. However, one of your highest priorities for a commercial application is that it looks good enough to buy - $30 for a good set is cheap compared to the time it takes you to research and find a set, nevermind the time it'd take for you to make them yourself.
