Today we’ve pushed Firebug 1.4.0b1 (same as 1.4.0a31) to addons.mozilla.org. Currently, we’ve only turned it on for users of 3.5b4 and later, but this version is fully-compatible with Firefox 3.0 as well. Users of Firefox 3.0 who want to try out Firebug 1.4 should download it from getfirebug.com/releases/firebug/1.4 or disable version checking on AMO. When [...]
I noticed a funny problem with Firebug 1.4a10 and Firefox 3.1b2 yesterday which I’ve since seen reported and verified by other users. John Barton confirmed it in his build but says that the trace-enabled version of 1.4a10X works properly. You can get it here: getfirebug.com/releases/firebug/1.4X.
If you’d rather stick with the non-debug version for performance reasons [...]
I’ve been getting asked about this more and more recently, so I thought I should write something in an attempt to allay the confusion around this. Let me say this first:
Firebug 1.2.1 is not compatible with Firefox 3.1.
That bothers me, but not half-as-much as it probably bothers you, the person trying to debug some web [...]
I’m going to take a break from talking about Firebug (which is awesome) this afternoon to relay an interesting experience I had. Something a little out-of-the-ordinary that was kind of fun and can hopefully be useful to others should they find themselves in the same situation.
It’s Friday afternoon and I’m sitting at my desk, a [...]
This weekend I took a bit of time out of my busy schedule of barbecuing and hiking among the rocks to write a little extension. A visiting friend asked if there was an easy way to get a list of the currently open tabs to enter in a wiki page. I tried various “bookmark all [...]
Our crack team of experts is still working on getting the web infrastructure fixed up. In the meantime, I’m going to be posting stuff to my flickr stream all day in the Firefox 3 Release Week set.
Now that we’re on the verge of shipping Firefox 3 to hundreds of millions of users around the planet, and getting ready to move our development efforts into new territory on a new repository, it’s a good time to talk about the tireless robots that have diligently checked every source change for nearly a year and a half. They’ve worked hard, been yelled at, called names and had tense discussions with developers and IT personnel during that entire period. Some have passed on, retired to the quieter pastures of staging or have been melted down for scrap. A couple of die-hards survived relatively unscathed and are looking forward for more action, their scars worn like badges of honor…
Deb posted an excellent run-down the other day about 20 top-notch add-ons ready for Firefox 3. I thought I’d do a quick write-up about a few of the add-ons I find invaluable too (and more-or-less ready for Firefox 3.0). Note that there may be some overlap here and that some of these add-ons are considered [...]
