Thanks for the reply, Pedro.

I didn't realize that Firebug Lite had no javascript debugger. That means
I'm back looking for a way to step through javascript code on the iPad.
Any suggestions? I need to debug some touch eventhandlers. Safari for
desktop computers doesn't appear to emulate the iOS touch events in its iPad
user-agent simulator.

When I accidentally touched (with my finger) the Deactivate button, Firebug
went away, but when I "pinched" the iPad Safari screen to resize the page,
it turned out that the little firebug icon was simply hiding outside the
viewport. So maybe it didn't get deactivated?

Regards
Tim Romano
