JSLib intermittently does not work in Firefox - reinstall fixes

[pc1oad1etter]

This happened to me once, and I wrote it off as a fluke, but now it happened again and I want to ask if anyone else has seen this behavior before.

I installed JSLib, and used it successfully.  Some time later, I loaded Firefox and none of my JSLib .xul examples would load.  jslib:about and other commands did not work - but jslib:docs did take me to the on-line documentation.  Restarting Firefox did not fix the problem, and I believe I even rebooted and it did not fix the problem.  Each time I re-installed JSLib, rebooted, and it worked.

Let me know if you can explain this behavior or if you can recommend me to look for anything the next time it happens.

Windows XP/ Firefox 2.0, using jslib_current_static.xpi .

Thanks,
Nick

Is it possible you have two jslib's installed?

One in global chrome c:\Program Files\Firefox\chrome\jslib

and one in your user profile dir?

Pete,

No, this doesn't appear to be the case -

C:\Documents and Settings\%myname%\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\0ko2cemk.default\chrome
doesn't have any of the jslib files.

actually, I just experienced the same thing on my Mac 10.3.9 and FF 2.0 - my chrome files aren't loading now, but they were previously.  Again, the user profile doesn't seem to have any JSLib content - just in the FF package itself.  I have not yet re-installed to see if this returns it to normal.
