getting continuous "error parsing raw data" error

[Trick Rick]

so I searched the group, and found a simliar error, but I think different circumstance.

I have the following instance of FirePHP within the constructor of an output class that I use

// setup FirePHP output

define('INSIGHT_CONFIG_PATH', FS_ROOT.'includes/FirePHP/package.json');

require_once(FS_ROOT.'includes/FirePHP/FirePHP/Init.php');

$inspector = FirePHP::to('page');

self::$FirePHP = $inspector->console();

further logging down the page runs just fine

if (TEST_MODE) {

self::$FirePHP->label('Browser_info')->info(self::$browser);

self::$FirePHP->label('$_SESSION')->info($_SESSION);

self::$FirePHP->label('$_GET')->info($_GET);

self::$FirePHP->label('$_POST')->info($_POST);

self::$FirePHP->label('$_COOKIE')->info($_COOKIE);

}

If I add a simple test log, it also works fine

$foo = 'foo';self::$FirePHP->group('startup')->label('foo')->info($foo);

however if I take this same test line, and put it inside a separate function

public static function log() {

  $foo = 'foo';self::$FirePHP->group('startup')->label('foo')->info($foo);

  }

and then perform an

  output::foo();

elsewere int he code, Developer Companion comes up with an error as shown here: http://gyazo.com/5eff7d959a007a804dd76ee0cfa659e6

Not really sure how Developer Companion is processing the difference in calls, but i'd like to be able to call it from within my own logging function. (i use my own wrapper log function so I can divert to a file/email depending on teh circumstances)

any idea why firephp calls would be causing the hiccup when called from a separate function?

[Trick Rick]

should add some details:

FireFox v12.0 release

Firebug v1.10.0a7

Developer Companion v1.0b1rc45
