Jonathan,
the updated version of this extension compatible with Firefox 6.0 is bundled with IDEA 10.5.1 and later versions.

Joey,
when you start JavaScript debug configuration from IDEA it should open a new tab if Firefox is already running. Also make sure that you’re using the latest IDEA version (10.0.2), it contains many fixes for JavaScript debugger.

I was having the same situation with Bubble on Idea 9.0. Debugger was never braking in a breakpoint.

I have Firefox 3.5 and Firebug installed…

My Solution: When i active the firebug (firebug icon shown in yellow) idea debugger started to break at all breakpoints

kibbylop, have you tried the Run menu? I think Edit Configurations will help you with that.

I installed IntelliJ hoping (desperately) to debug FireFox, but have found no path to the dialog you so optimistically display. I relearn from this experience that I must consider any statement being “Just ….” suspect before meriting my attention or effort. But given Firefox’s current state, I _am_ desperate.
