Thanks! And if I need to use this variable from my own HTML page, how can I access it?
Here's the code I'm trying to use in my own HTML page - but it doesn't work: <html><body> <input type="button" value="show me" onclick="alert(console.$0)"/> <div id="test1">test1</div> <div id="test2">test2</div> </body></html> Thanks again, Marius On Mon, Sep 8, 2008 at 5:15 PM, Jan Odvarko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Is it possible to retrieve the selected (inspected) element from > > Firebug?
