Since we can't get a test case (and we can't fix bugs we can't see), here are two suggestions:
First, try Firebug 1.4Xa12 http://getfirebug.com/releases/1.4x/. My bet is that your problem is fixed or different in 1.4. In 1.3 I improved the performance of Script panel display but it was 'jumpy' in some cases. In 1.4 I refined the implementation. That meant I spent more time with it and may have fixed your issue. Second, try Firebug 1.4Xa12, http://getfirebug.com/releases/1.4x/ and open the tracing window (Firebug icon menu). From options pick "ERRORS". If you see errors correlated to your issue we may be able to find the problem without a test case. jjb On Jan 29, 6:38 am, Andrew Powell <[email protected]> wrote: > Here's a screenshot of a 1000 line + script being cut off at line > 20:http://i39.tinypic.com/f5rfl.png > At the same time I have another script which is being cut off at line > 1. > > It's obviously a bug as there are more than one person having this > issue, and I doubt this is intended behavior ;). > > Thanks for your attention to the matter. > > On Jan 29, 9:33 am, Andrew Powell <[email protected]> wrote: > > > How can we develop a test case for something that continues to happen > > at random? > > About the best we could do is to take a slew of screenshots. > > > On Jan 26, 3:15 pm, John J Barton <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > Ok when someone comes up with a test case we will take a look. > > > > jjb > > > > On Jan 26, 11:56 am, Andrew Powell <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > John, > > > > > I have tried your solution; firebug seemed to play nice until about > > > > the 20th page load.
