does firebug have wordwrap?

Jan 12.2009

this is probably the kind of question that gets newbies burned at the stake but hopefully someone will have the heart to spare me with a yes or no response.

I’m exploring some well known sites in firebug for self-educational purposes and just wanted to be able to view these endless lines of ‘minified’ (if that’s the right word for it) script or long CSS selector lists on one screen

@Major_PayneJan 13.2009 — It wraps ok for me in HTML or CSS view using Firefox 2.0.0.20 and FireBug version 1.3.0. There are no Option settings for Firebug except when console is open and then only for Script and Net.

@sundaydeveloperauthorJan 13.2009 — Oh yes, it does wrap in CSS and HTML for me too it's just Script view that doesn't. (firefox 3.0.5 firebug 1.3.0)

@Major_PayneJan 13.2009 — In Script view, I can get rid of the bottom scroll bar by widening my browser window. Seems only way since I see no Option for word wrap although I don't think that should be an option for Script view anyway.

@sundaydeveloperauthorJan 14.2009 — well yes code wrap might risk confusion as to the position of line-breaks etc but for example visual studio wraps code onto blank un-numbered lines between numbered lines I was hoping for something like that. Never mind I will just learn to live without : )

@Major_PayneJan 14.2009 — My HTML Editor wraps lines the same way with no problems, too. Maybe you can contact the developer of the add-on and make a suggestion. He might like the idea.

Success!
