I'm in the middle of reworking the command line using two overlapping HTML input boxes and not using selectionRange for the completion text. The result will visually resemble the new Google completer. I have some of the basic stuff working again. What I need to address this kind of problem is detailed specific test cases, eg 1. open http://getfirebug.com 2. type "doc" 3. type TAB 4. ?? Things like "a symbol" and "short name" etc. are not useful because I don't know what to type in those cases. jjb > > Regards, > Daniel -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Firebug" group.
