New firefox + firebug breaks select2 in wrapbootstrap pixel-admin theme

Question

I'm getting a TypeError: elem.dispatchEvent is not a function using select2 in jquery using the wrapbootsrap pixel-admin theme.

It can be reproduced in firebug on the demo site via http://radiant-ocean-4606.herokuapp.com/forms-advanced.html

Firefox Version: 29.0.1 Firebug Version: 1.12.8

It's a similar error message to this question:

"element.dispatchEvent is not a function" js error caught in firebug of FF3.0

But the answer there doesn't help me as my site is all jquery (well as far as I know - I did somewhat accept the theme bundle as it came for the time being until I have time to really rip it apart and modify it in detail).

Answer 1

This was caused by changes to the browser, the solution was to stop using firebug. The features firebug offered are ubiquitous now!
