I am using Firefox 3.5.5 with Firefly 1.4.3. I am suddenly unable to
use the script debugger on the site that I am developing. All line
numbers are now gray. This is true for my in-line javascript and for
included javascript that should be bug-free (like json2.js, for
example).

My site is larkspree.com. The in-line javascript is not even showing
up in the list of files within the script tab of firefly. The included
javascript files show up in the list under larkspree.com/js.

When I look at the script debugger for this site
(groups.gogle.com/...), I see what I would expect in the script
window, so I'm pretty sure that something in my code has thrown
firefly off. But I'm not sure what it is.

Since I have been writing and rewriting my javascript, I have kept
most of it in-line, and the source for the index file is nearly 2000
lines. Breaking it down to find out what's wrong will be tedious.

Does anyone have any suggestions how to quickly find the problem?

Thanks

You can check the Firefox > Tools >Error Console.
You can reset all of the Firebug options (see
http://getfirebug.com/wiki/index.php/FAQ)
You can install Firebug in a new Firefox profile in case your
configuration is messed up (see http://getfirebug.com/wiki/index.php/FAQ)
You can try Firebug 1.5b3, http://getfirebug.com/releases/firebug/1.5X

Thanks, John. Resetting all of the options appears to be all that I
needed to do. That's good to know, since this has happened many times
before.
