I've just started using FF3 and Firebug 1.2 Win XP and have been looking around to find out if it's only me. Apparently not. I'm a bit worried because Firebug is a critical tool for my productivity and I am finding script debugging is in trouble.
Specifics: - Breakpoints sometimes automatically disable on page refresh: this makes them unusable because page won't break. - Single step sometimes appears to REPEAT on the same line!! No debugging going on here. - Single step sometimes just warps out of debugging mode to who knows where? Can't debug. - Breakpoints drop in on a blank screen or go to start of script so you can't track steps. Sometimes a page refresh enables Firebug to find it's place in the script the second time round, like it needs to refresh some initialisation data. I was wondering if it was my JavaScript or a Firebug problem and was scanning to find other reports before spending the time on pinning down a test case. My script is very small but a bit complex - uses XMLHttpRequest and some OO work to manage node creation and event handling. Oh, but the page has some large arrays on it too... I already tried a new profile with absolutely no improvement. I am considering going back to FF2 until the new Firebug matures on FF3 or my code improves. Are we really the only two people who have got this? (Note to Google: Firebug problems in Firefox 3.) Thanks for all your sterling work. Magnificent plugin.
