Steven, I see the same as you. However, this is not the same issue.

When you click the Write Document button and the document.open() happens, the URL doesn't change, but it appears to change in Firebug's realm. Firebug is not set to be activated in the new page, but the thing that usually closes Firebug when you navigate to an unmonitored page doesn't seem to trigger. Firebug remains open, but doesn't activate, so any action remains without effect.

If, when in the "Hello, world" page, you reload the page with F5 or the button, you will see Firebug close. You can then open it properly, refresh the page again, and use it.

I don't think this has a link with the issue I'm reporting in this thread. Mine is likely a memory/object corruption over time in Firefox (or in Firebug, but I would guess Firefox). Yours is an activation issue, Firebug should either close (or stay open and activate as the URL didn't really change), but not stay in linger between the two states.

document.open("text/html", "replace")
Yeah, that will be a problem.
Trying this page:
http://www.webreference.com/js/tutorial1/write.html
Hit the first "write document" button. The console won't work after
that.
I loaded that page with FIrebug 1.7 and pressed the button. The
command line continues to work for me.

I bet ad servers do this sort of thing in iframes, so I hope there
aren't side effects in that situation or we would have a widespread
issue.
