Firebug, the mighty hammer of web development, has updated to 1.5. The coolest new feature is the “Break On Next” button is now context sensitive, depending on which panel you are looking at. The breakdown of “break on next …” to panels is as follows:
| Panel | Event |
|---|---|
| Console | Break on All Errors |
| HTML | Break on mutate |
| CSS | Disabled |
| Script | Break on Next statement |
| DOM | Disabled |
| Net | Break on XHR |
It’s really great to see this extension continue to improve not only in terms of stability and useful features without getting bloated.
The original note about this feature is on the Firebug 1.6a5 blog post .
