Since I's using FF3.5(final) and Firebug 1.4.0b3, when I use the
console do check an object he shows 'undefined' when I do something
like:

var obj = new Object();
console.info(obj);

the console shows me: 'undefined' .

I don't know if it's the way it will works now, but I think it's much
better if the console shows the result of obj.toString() as it used to
be.

Please try Firebug 1.5a7 or 1.4b4 from http://getfirebug.com/releases.
This has been fixed already.

this still appears to be broken on Firefox 3.5 + Firebug 1.4.0b4 on
OSX 10.5.7.

on an empty html page, i typed this into the console:

new Date()

and Firebug still returns "undefined".

I get a proper date from Firebug 1.5a6 and 1.5a7 on Firefox 3.5 on
WinXP.

I'm still seeing the same bug with FF3.5/FB1.4b4 on XP.

@johnjbarton,

just to be clear, @Mikhas's test case still fails on Firefox 3.5 +
Firebug 1.4.0b4 (WinXP).
i also tested it against 1.4.0b5, but to no avail.

i.e. when typed consecutively into the firebug console, the following
_still_ show up as undefined:

obj = {};
obj
console.log(obj)


are you recommending a firebug upgrade from 1.4.0b4 (or b5) to 1.5a7
as a workaround / solution?

update:

update:
i've tried the test cases mentioned in this thread against firefox 3.5
+ firebug 1.5X.0a07 and firebug seems to work as expected.

i'll stick with the 1.5X branch for now, but what's going to happen to
existing firebug 1.4 users?

Thanks for this information. Now we will investigate why the 1.4 code
does not have this patch from 1.5.

Fixed for me, as of 1.4.0b6. Thanks!
