Hi there,

I am developing a firefox extension, and using chromebug (with firebug
installed) to debug my work. I am having a problem with the watch tab
(that is firebug's but embedded in the chromebug), as it seems that no
variable is listened there, and I am even not able to add new watch
statement to workaround that. So, at this point, I am not able to know
what "this" object is, and what are the values for the defined
variables there. However, when I hover over variables in the code
pane, the values show up (which is good).

Anybody knows if this is a known issue and if there is a way to get it
fixed?

I realized the problem. I uninstalled my firebug (1.8 a), and used
1.7.2 instead (with having the matching chromebug), and this fixed the
problem.
