There are already preferences for disabling the cache (JS preference), but they are not used for this use case, so they added another preference in another preference source (command line). > In my opinion this is not the way to go to create an efficient& developer-friendly software development platform :/ Not too developer friendly, but there seems to be a reason for it: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=531886#c48 I wanted to complain that a change like this isn't documented in the release notes - but I just realised it is: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Extensions/Updating_extensions_for_Firefox_4 mentions the change. (I only read https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Firefox_4_for_developers#Changes_for_Mozilla_and_add-on_developers and overlooked the aforementioned document.) regards, Michael
