Firebug 1.1 and getfirebug.com

Written by on February 5th, 2008 in Ajax News.

John J Barton has been working hard on Firebug 1.1, but the work has been in the dark a little unless you are paying attention.

He has been putting releases up, and Kris Zyp has been kind enough to host

I have talked to a few people recently who keep Firefox 2 around just “because Firebug needs it” but the latest beta works great in Firefox 3 (which I find to be a huge leap on the Mac).

The beta features:

  • eval() debugging,
  • external editor interface,
  • browser-generated event handler debugging,
  • executable lines marked with green line numbers,
  • user-controlled naming of eval() buffers,
  • Stack side panel on “Script” panel for callstack,
  • Supports Firefox 3,
  • “better” debugging icons,
  • CSS errors report against source lines,
  • bug fixes (incl. issues 8, 69, 218, 230, 239, 249, 269, 314, 321, 345)
  • Internal firebug debug output

I raise a drink to John for keeping Firebug going strong!

Firefox 3
