<div style="TEXT-INDENT: 2em"><font color="#000000" size="3">I want to modify some
source codes of firefox.In some cases, I modify the file under obj/firefox/bin
path,it can take effect immediately. In other cases, I must rebuild browse to
make it effect. Are there other approaches can be used instead of
rebuilding?Rebuild the browser is very time-consuming when I debug the
code.</font></div>
