I've just upgraded Firefox from version 26 to version 27 on both my Mac (running Snow Leopard, 10.6.8) and my Windows VM (Windows 7). I'm running the latest version of Firebug on both. So far I've only been playing around with the Mac version, which is where I mostly develop.
The good news: everything seems snappier, even when using the Firebug Scripts panel. The bad news: there's still that warning message showing up, "Warning: Enabling the Script panel causes a Firefox slow-down due to a platform bug. This will be fixed with the next major Firefox and Firebug versions." I thought that annoying warning would be gone, especially since it does seem faster. Did the developers just neglect to remove the warning message, or do they consider that the bug is still unfixed? If the latter, what constitutes "the next major...versions"? I hope they don't mean Australis (Firefox 29 or whatever it is) since I'm unlikely to _ever_ "upgrade" to that. Another issue I'm seeing: when I load my pages with "All" errors enabled, I'm seeing no errors anywhere. However, when I select the Firebug "Inspect Element" tool and start clicking on things, errors appear. I don't see them at first because clicking the tool takes me to the HTML panel, but as soon as I come back to the Console, there are one or more errors that I'm pretty sure have nothing to do with my code. For example, one error says: "! Cannot specify value for internal property. Error in parsing value for "-x-system-font'. Declaration dropped." Looks like some kind of internal CSS error, but I don't even know what an "x-system-font" is. There are also a whole bunch of "errors" that show up intermittently that falsely claim to come from one of my external JavaScript files that are linked in to that page -- but I'm pretty sure actually have nothing to do with it. I don't think clicking anything with a Firebug tool should itself cause an error. Any enlightenment concerning the "slowdown warning," and the new Console errors, would be greatly appreciated.
