I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place for this kind of
comment, so my apologies in advance if it is not.
I installed Firebug Lite on a page I am debugging and was dismayed to
see that it is instantiated when the page is loaded in Firefox with
the standard Firebug extension already installed. I am, frankly,
amazed that Firebug Lite does not detect that the Firebug extension is
present and bail out early. This seems like a very basic requirement
that has been overlooked.
Because this behavior is not present, I whipped up the following PHP
code to wrap around the script tag and suppress it when the page is
viewed in Firefox:
<?php if (empty($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']) || strpos($_SERVER
['HTTP_USER_AGENT'],'Firefox')===false) { ?>
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://getfirebug.com/releases/
lite/1.2/firebug-lite-compressed.js'></script>
<?php } ?>
This workaround seems to work well enough, but this seems like
something that Firebug Lite should be handling for me. I am using
Firefox 3.0.5 on Ubuntu Linux with Firebug version 1.3.0 and Firebug
Lite version 1.2.
Thanks,
Dan
