Firefox Burnout

"Fire"... "Burn"... I'm trying to be cleaver, but I should be quick, since in the last few months, Firefox has gotten more and more unstable and I'm never sure when it's going to bomb out on me.

I understand that all their A-level team is busy working on FF3, but please, throw us folks still on FF2 a bone and let's try to make it a bit more stable.

Now for a bit of nitty-gritty Firefox (actually Firebug) news...

If you use Firebug (and if you do any front end developement, you should be!)... There seems to be an issue when trying to use Firebug to display style information for an "a" tag, nothing is displayed.

Turns out this is a known issue in Firefox 2.0.0.12 and will be fixed in release 2.0.0.13. In the meantime you can roll back to 2.0.0.11, which does work.
