Hmm... playing around more with either combination (FF 35.0.1 and Firebug 2.0.8 running inside my Win7 VM; or FF 34.0 and Firebug 2.0.8 directly on my Mac) ... I'm seeing behavior that I don't understand. I have an illustration page (in my Apache devel server, not online) where that HTML page loads a few different external JavaScript files (all from within the same domain and server). In Firebug I can see the dropdown list of all the JS files. If I choose the main JS file (the one that all my pages load), and I'm in the Script panel, I can set a breakpoint and it works fine. (A minor thing I just noticed -- once I click a debugger button there, all the other JS scripts disappear from the dropdown menu. Is that normal?)
So I reload the page, but this time I choose a different, secondary JS script file (one that I only use with my illustration pages) from the list, and set a breakpoint there. No matter on what line (with a green line number) I set it, the breakpoint doesn't work, as I described; execution stops at the breakpoint but then all three Firebug buttons are disabled and I can't advance. Yet (if I don't set a breakpoint) the script works perfectly with that page and doesn't throw any errors. Yet the breakpoints were working with that secondary JS file before (Mac Firefox 34 + Firebug 2.0.7) -- in fact I was debugging that JS file for many, many days before. The only difference I can think of now is that I was running Firebug 2.0.7 then and have since upgraded it to 2.0.8. Is there some way (short of wrestling with my backup programs) that I could downgrade Mac Firebug 2.0.8 to 2.0.7 and see whether the problem goes away?
