I have used Firebug a good bit under previous versions of Firefox but
today is the first time I've tried to use it since upgrading to
Firefox 4.0 / Firebug 1.7.0. I am loading a rather large JavaScript
file (~400KB) that is still under development. It seems to load fine
and operate correctly under Firefox 4.0, but when I went to single
step through part of the code using Firebug I ran into problems. I
finally tracked down the fact that sections of the JavaScript seem to
be missing from the display in Firebug. For example, the first
missing section of code should look like:
/
****************************************************************************/
/* Process a button press on either the State Up or Down
button. */
/
****************************************************************************/
case 0:
case 1:
var msg = "op|mds6uiZone|" + zoneDisplayNumber + "|
zoneDisplayState";
msg += "|" + zoneDisplayButton;
sendStandardRequest(msg, dummyCallback);
break;
/
****************************************************************************/
/* Process a button press on the Source Down button. This will
decrement */
/* the value of the sourceGroup variable array for this zone. There
are 6 */
/* inputs so the range is from 0 to 5. Decrementing from 0 rolls
under */
/* back to 5. If the new value is for a source that is not enabled,
then */
/* the function keeps decrementing until an enabled one is
found. */
/
****************************************************************************/
case 2: // cycle down through
source inputs
var newVal = sourceGroup[zoneDisplayNumber]; // determine
starting value
for (var i = 0; i < 6; i++) { // look for the next
enabled source
newVal--;
if (newVal < 0)
newVal = 5;
if (sourceDisplayEnable[newVal] == 1)
break;
}
var msg = "op|mds6uiZone|" + zoneDisplayNumber + "|sourceGroup|" +
newVal;
sendStandardRequest(msg, dummyCallback);
break;
However, when I display this section of code in the Firebug script
display window it looks like:
/
****************************************************************************/
/* Process a button press on either the State Up or Down button. */
ar i = 0; i < 6; i++) { // look for the next enabled source
newVal--;
if (newVal < 0)
newVal = 5;
if (sourceDisplayEnable[newVal] == 1)
break;
}
var msg = "op|mds6uiZone|" + zoneDisplayNumber + "|sourceGroup|" +
newVal;
sendStandardRequest(msg, dummyCallback);
break;
It appears that just over 17 lines are missing. In all, of 7989 lines
that should be displayed, only 7826 are shown in the Firebug display.
I downloaded the JavaScript file and compared it to the last checked
in version and it matches. Further, I downloaded and installed JSView
2.0.5 and it displays the JavaScript correctly.
This is such an obvious problem that I'm sure if it were a problem in
Firebug it would have been noticed before. I'm assuming it is some
configuration issue that I didn't set up correctly under Firefox 4.0
but I'm at a loss to think of what.
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks,
Dave
