If I load new web page, the content of the old web page in net tab
would all disappear.

Is there a way to make it persistent over different web page?

PS: I'm using Firebug 1.5.4.

Thanks in advance.

Currently no, but agree there should be a way...

It's because of the following code in tabWatcher.js

// xxxHonza, xxxJJB: web application detection. Based on domain check.
var prevDomain = persistedState ? getDomain(persistedState.location) :
null;
var domain = getDomain(location);
if (!persistedState || prevDomain != domain)
persistedState = null;

If following is commented out, it works.
//if (!persistedState || prevDomain != domain)
// persistedState = null;


John, do you think we could have a preference that would do this?
Would it be dangerous if users set it and then forgotten it's set?

Off line Honza and I agreed to just let the Persist be manual: you
will accumulate net traffic until you press it off.
