Okay, this is really odd.

After adding the logging in both lib.$ and chrome.$ in the firebug
code, I found something really odd. When firebug is inside firefox,
everything is cool and the global "$" as seen by chrome.$ is the same
as FBL.$, but when I open firebug in a window, I get a different "$"
in chrome.js.

I changed the $ function in chrome.$ to this:
    $: function(id)
    {
FBTrace.sysout("chrome.$ document: "+(document.location) + " for ID: "
+ id + " and $ is: " + $ + " FBL.$ = " + FBL.$);
      return $(id);
    },

And $ in lib.js to this:
this.$ = function(id, doc)
{
FBTrace.sysout("lib.$ document: "+(doc?
doc.location:document.location) + " for ID: " + id);

    if (doc)
        return doc.getElementById(id);
    else
        return document.getElementById(id);
};


But when I have firebug in its own window I see this output in the
console:


FTS0: chrome.$ document: chrome://firebug/content/firebug.xul for ID:
fbAdfvTypeMenu and $ is: function $(id, doc) {
    if (doc) {
        return doc.getElementById(id);
    } else {
        return document.getElementById(id);
    }
} FBL.$ = function (id, doc) {
    FBTrace.sysout("lib.$ document: " + (doc ? doc.location :
document.location) + " for ID: " + id);
    if (doc) {
        return doc.getElementById(id);
    } else {
        return document.getElementById(id);
    }
}


As you can see, the global "$" function is different than "FBL.$"
function. I tried disabling all my extensions except for firebug and
mine, and so far I do not see who is overwriting the "$" in chrome's
namespace or window object. Quite odd. Don't suppose you know what is
going on?

If it matters, I am using firefox 3.5.3 shipped by Ubuntu in Jaunty
and Firebug 1.4.3

Thanks for all your help.
