I have run into a very strange issue with Firebug. I don't really know
what has changed. But to make myself clear, here is what I did and
what happened:
1. I had Firbug 1.7X.0a1 and Chromebug 1.7.0a1 installed and running
absolutely fine.
2. I was designing one of the xul components for an extension that I
am writing for my client.
3. The xul component was loaded into the FF browser and I could change
the css/xul elements using Fbug.
4. After I loaded chrome://browser/content/browser.xul once, and
restarted FF, Fbug and chromebug loaded but Fbug started showing menus
in the following format:
firebug.DetachFirebug
firebug.ClearConsole
firebug.menu.Enable All Panels
firebug.menu.Disable All Panels
On for all web pages
firebug.menu.Clear Activation List
5. In the tools menu, it just shows, firebug.firebug. When I move my
cursor on the menu, it dos not expand to show sub-menus.
So practically speaking, my fbug has stopped working. Nothing happens
if I click on any of the menus or the bug icon at the bottom right
corner of status bar.
I uninstalled and reinstalled several times, in vain.
I removed all other extensions that I had and loaded just Fbug, no
help.
I kept switching back to older versions and here's what I found:
1. This problem persisted until Fbug 1.6X.0b1.
2. When I went back to Fbug 1.5.4, Fbug came back to life once again.
but I also had to swicth back to Chromebug 1.5.0b8. And you know,
1.5.4 is way slower compared to >1.7 versions of both Fbug and
chromebug.
I reset the values in about:config file as well just to make sure I
don't leave anything trivial. But nothing seems to help. Has anyone
seen this behavior? I am really stuck.
I also uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox 3.6.9 as well as 3.6.10,
didn't help.
I have not logged an issue on http://code.google.com/p/fbug/issues/entry
yet, because I'm not sure if this really is a bug or if I have messed
up something really trivial.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Jha
