After following the 1.4/1.5 soap opera for some time, meanwhile sticking with 1.3, I finally got some time to upgrade and try out 1.4.2 (installed from the add-on dialog of FF 3.0.13, on Windows XP).
To avoid any problems, I created a new profile, along with a shortcut that starts FF with "-P myprofile -no-remote". This way, I can keep my default profile for all the usual things I do with FF, and run a separate instance specifically for debugging my web app. (FWIW, this uses ext js.) In general, I'm pleased with the new goodies, and am learning not to hit the top right button when I mean "minimize". As part of playing around, I tried out the "Break on Next" button on the Script tab, with no success. It starts out as a "pause" icon (two vertical orange bars). According to the very limited description I could track down, clicking on it should make it "throb" -- it didn't for me. It immediately turned into the blue right-pointing triangle, and in the pane below, a breakpoint is shown somewhere in the extjs code. If I click the triangle, the icon goes back to the pause state. (Again, this is in a fresh profile; no other extensions -- except the G-D MS .NET assistant which somehow got installed automatically, and I can only disable it, not uninstall it.)
