Should we merge?

Honza

chrome.tabs.getSelected and chrome.tabs.sendRequest are deprecated, have to be replaced with tabs.query and tabs.sendMessage. Should i go with maintaining persistent connection for requests or just go with the current one-time requests implementation ?

Sorry for the delay. Gal (the guy who maintained Firebug Lite for some time) doesn't have time to help with the pull request.

Anyway, I believe that the problem should be fixed.

Would you have time to merge/test/release new version?
(I can provide you with necessary privileges)

I took quick look at the patch, but it look like the entire background.html has been changed, so I can't see the right changes. Did you change the end-of-line style?

No, indeed the whole file was changed (code moved into a .js file). You can ignore whitespace changes by appending ?w=1 to the diff link.

@janodvarko @simonlindholm the manifest version 2 states no inline js should be run in background, so moved it to a seperate js file , also there are a quite a few deprecated methods used in the extension. I just started reworking the entire extension. Sorry for the delay in bug fix, will get it done soon. This patch should get the extension get installed properly.

This sounds great, so please keep us updated.

@janodvarko can v merge this and release a minor version so that users with chrome version > 18 wont take hit on the new manifest changes. if its ok i can help out with the new release.

Thanks

Thanks

This is great!

Would you be interested in building new release of Firebug Lite?

We are hardworking on Firebug 1.13 (should be 2.0) and not having much time for Firebug Lite at the moment.

Please contact me: [email protected] we can discuss details.

also can you direct me to the existing tracker for firebug-lite,

There are some FirebugLite related issues in the official issue list
https://code.google.com/p/fbug/issues/list?can=2&q=label%3Alite&colspec=ID+Type+Status+Owner+Test+Summary+Reporter&cells=tiles
(using label "lite")

But, I believe that using the issue tracker here on github.com is better.

We also wanted to move the issues from the Google Code tracker to GitHub at some point, though we didn't have time yet to investigate whether that's possible without losing information.

Thanks Honza.. @SebastianZ no successful scripts out there to achieve this :(
