I have a similar issue, at least regarding online editing..... I can edit
HTML in the lower left window of firebug, and it 'takes', but editing DOM
etc. in the lower right window disappears as soon as I hit 'enter'. Gives
every appearance of working, only it ignores my changes completely. So I
can't change anything but HTML online.
Did the about:config thing and nothing shows up in ErrorConsole.

Tried this on four different Windows XP box, all the same issue, tried
firebug 1.3.2, 1.3.3, 1.4, all same issue. My Web Design professor (and his
Mac) have no problems editing DOM in firebug.

I must be doing something wrong, the live edit feature is so darn useful
other people would be hitting this problem right and left.
