How to stop Firebug from jumping to changing code or script

How to keep Firebug from moving focus to changed code First off, I love Firebug ! It is a valuable tool for taking a look "behind the scenes" of the sites I work on. I really like that I can right click on an element and take a look at the code that is driving it. Recently however I have become frustrated with a "feature" of the tool.

But the real point of all this is to raise money for life-saving research.  I’m doing it for infants, children, teens and young adults fighting cancer.  While it’s especially hard to think of kids fighting cancer, I’m also glad to know that some of the research supported by this foundation ultimately helps to fight all cancers. Please make a donation on my head and come watch us “Shaving the Way to Conquer Kids’ Cancer!” March 10th at The Harp Irish Pub 1425 Market Blvd Suite 1339 Roswell, GA http://tinyurl.com/BaldDrew
