Hi there,

i have installed firebug and able to run it.

However when i launch browser via PHP code which uses selenium webdriver to launch it, Mozilla firefox is launched without any add-ons. ( i believe it is a safe-mode mozilla firefox)

do you have any setup to ensure firebug is always appear in browser?

You should specify the Firefox profile to use via the -p command line parameter and that a new instance of Firefox should be started via the -no-remote parameter. So the call to Firefox would then look something like this:

firefox -p "profile name" -no-remote

See more about that at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Command_Line_Options.
