Yes, inline here means "embedded in the HTML code", i.e. a style sheet surrounded by <style> tags. A worse problem is the number "13". I look around and find the CSS rule on > line 35 of my document.

The numbering is relative to the beginning of each style sheet. I.e. 13 is the 13th line after the <style> tag. > Is this a bug, or just the DevTools being stupid?

Sebastian PS: If your question is only related to the Firefox DevTools, you should better ask in their communication channels <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools#Join_the_Developer_tools_community>, not the Firebug discussion group. In this case it is fine, though, because it's a difference to Firebug. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Firebug" group.
