This issue is happening with Firebug 1.10.0a1 and prior on Windows 7 64-bit. It seems to be related to this issue: http://code.google.com/p/fbug/issues/detail?id=5111

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Go to http://theworldgame.sbs.com.au/videos
2. Open firebug and select the scripts tab
3. Switch to another js file. for example, switch to vod_1.0.0.js
4. Wait for the carousel item to switch over on the page (a few seconds)
5. Notice that the script panel has now changed back to looking at the inline content of the page rather than the js file we chose.

I've tested this on 2 machines with the same results each time.

Also, this issue never arose for me with firebug 1.8.x

I can confirm the incorrect behavior using FF 9.0.1/12.0a1 + FB 1.9.0/1.10.0a1 and the correct behavior using FF 7.0.1 + FB 1.8.4. I guess this issue was introduced with issue 1413 or the related issue 4874. Though I didn't investigate any further yet.

Here's another test case for this: 1. Go to http://scoprirete.bibliotecheromagna.it/ 2. Enable and switch to the Script panel 3. Reload the page 4. Select "c-min.js" from the Script Location Menu

=> "syLibs.js" will be selected again a moment later

Having automated test (FBTest) for this issue would be extremely useful, but I don't know how to do it. Could anybody explain what's happening with the c-min.js script? It seems to be changed constantly...
