Hi,

I don't know what happened but as of yesterday, the console doesn't
clear when I refresh the page. And it doesn't log AJAX calls anymore.
I have to open a new window of Firefox for it to work - and only then,
it works once and stops working.

Any idea how I can get the console to clear on page refresh?

Thanks

What version of Firebug/Firefox do you use?

I just uninstalled both Firefox + Firebug and re-installed the latest
versions and it still doesn't work.
It was just working two days ago... did I press something?

No, you didn't press something. You didn't press the keys that tell us
what versions you are complaining about ;-)

Ok I want the opposite please. How do I get my console to stop
clearing? I want to see the actual request post parameters made by a
form that gets really obfuscated by lots of javascript.

I am using Firefox Beta 3 beta 5, and Firebug alpha 20x (the latest)
and this is working fine for me. Both the clearing of the console and
logging Ajax requests. Are you sure you really refreshed the page?
Sometimes if there are hash marks (#) in the URL the browser will not
refresh when you click refresh.

Also, check your options in the console to make sure the Show
XMLHttpRequests is checked.

I've seen the behavior you are describing (not logging ajax requests)
in FIrefox 2 with Firebug 1.0 .
