I hope you're right. I'd read various complaints (a couple of months ago, I
guess) on a few different online forums about Australis killing all
toolbars, including custom toolbars needed by extension developers... but
perhaps they were mistaken, or maybe Mozilla has added more flexibility. I
haven't experimented with Australis myself; I just assumed the complaints
were accurate.

 For the second error, can you post a link to some page online where that

themes, relaunching Mac Firefox repeatedly, etc.  I finally discovered that
the problem happens even with *all* extensions and themes disabled except
Firebug itself. So it isn't an extensions conflict.

I also discovered that the problem happens if the "Warnings" button is
enabled in the Console, but if I only have "Errors" enabled, the problem
goes away. So I guess I just can't use Warnings any more.

By the way, can somebody explain the relationship between the choices you
can check in the popdown menu -- like "Show JavaScript Errors", "Show
JavaScript Warnings", etc. -- and the simple "All"/"Errors"/"Warnings"
buttons along the top of the Firebug panel? (I should explain that I run
Firebug in a standalone window on a separate monitor.)  At present, the
popdown-menu options seem to have no effect at all, although the buttons
work.

I also tried to find online pages that exhibited the problem I was
describing, that is clicking with the "Inspect Element" tool generating
these weird warnings. But I discovered that on common pages such as https://
/www.google.com or http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/ I can't even get that far --
if the Warnings button is enabled, the Console panel fills up with many,
many warnings before I even get a chance to click anything. (Not always at
first load, but always on reloading those pages.)

I also discovered that the same version of Firefox + Firebug on Win7
generates different messages in general than on the Mac, looking at the
same pages. As I said before, the Windows version generates far fewer of
the weird Warnings (generally none for my own pages). But it flags some
things as Errors that the Mac doesn't -- for example, in a JavaScript "for
loop", I had started it (as I usually do) like this:   for(i=0;   and Mac
FF/Firebug had no problem with that, but the Windows version flagged it as
an undeclared variable error and stopped the page from even loading
further. (I easily fixed this by changing it to for(var i=0;... which seems
kind of picky to me, but okay.)  I was told here previously that the errors
may come from Firefox, and are simply displayed by Firebug, but still I
don't understand why Mac vs. PC would differ that way. Anyway, that's
fairly trivial.

Sorry for running on so long. Finally, here are two more of the weird
Warnings I'm getting with my own devel pages when clicked with the Firebug
Inspect tool, with the Warnings console button enabled -- sometimes the
same few warnings repeated hundreds of times per page, filling up the whole
Firebug console, such as:

Cannot specify value for internal property. Error in parsing value for
'border-left-color-rtl-source'. Declaration dropped.
physical


Cannot specify value for internal property. Error in parsing value for
'border-left-color-value'. Declaration dropped.
-moz-use-text-color

...and so on. All other addons disabled; doesn't look related to my source
code; happens only on Mac, not on PC. Any idea what's causing that?

Thanks much for your patience,
Jonas
