My console log messages are not showing. I've just recently read about
console, and I'm making calls to console.log("Log something"), but
nothing appears in the console. I don't get any errors, and actually
I'm quite sure console is defined after having played around with it a
bunch.

Am I missing something? Do I need to enable something in order to see
the log messages?

Following test case works for me:

Does it work for you?

It doesn't work - I get no output from the test.

What version of Firefox, Firebug do you use?
If you create a new Firefox profile, with only Firebug installed, does
it help?

Thanks for your help.

I'm using Firefox 5.0, and Firebug 1.7.3

I created a new profile, installed Firebug, and I was able to see the
log messages. So it obviously works, but something is blocking it from
my regular profile - and ideas?

It could be a collision with another extension. Do you have any?
If yes, try to disable them step by step to see which one is it.

Thanks I got it first try! It's the noscript plugin. Any idea how I
can stop this from blocking my log messages?

Excellent

I don't know what could be the problem, but please create a new report
here:
http://code.google.com/p/fbug/issues/list

I'll take a look at it.

Thanks!
