Firebug 1.9.2 requires Firefox 5.0 or higher. See the version history<https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/firebug/versions/> . > >"Firebug is just working on the client side.

I am older and wiser, if wearier. > Well, you *can* edit the CSS and HTML of the page, but the changes are just local and will be gone as soon as you reload the page. Though there are some Firebug extensions like FireFile<http://getfirebug.com/wiki/index.php/Firebug_Extensions#FireFile>and cssUpdater<http://getfirebug.com/wiki/index.php/Firebug_Extensions#cssUpdater>, which let you at least synchronize CSS changes back to the server. But HTML output is normally dynamically created via a server-side script and the browser (and therefore Firebug) doesn't have access to these files. Btw. that's the same for all web dev tools running inside the browser. Thanks for the tip, I will see if I have better luck editing the Adsense > script tag on our server. It shouldn't be too hard to do that. If you have problems, though, I'm sure the Google support can help you out.
