I think that if you set Firebug to open in new window, then call TabWatcher.watchBrowser(browser) and pass your browser element then some thing might work. I guess that any Firebug activity in Firefox will get confused with this non-Firefox browser. The Firebug object lives in the Firefox browser so the only sure fire way is to overlay your window with the Firebug code so Firebug lives in your window. Chromebug would work without any changes I guess. So then you don't need to do anything except help devs with a bit of user guide to set Chromebug to work for your window. jjb > > Thanks for any help you can provide! > > --Kyle > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Firebug" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group > athttp://groups.google.com/group/firebug?hl=en. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Firebug" group.
