Problem with getting FirePHP to work with Zend Framework

[Justin]

I'm trying to get FirePHP working with ZF and for the life of me can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.  Your tutorial seems pretty straightforward but maybe I'm missing something.

I'm running 1.6 and pass this in my bootstrap:

$logger = new Zend_Log();
$writer = new Zend_Log_Writer_Firebug();
$logger->addWriter($writer);
Zend_Registry::set('logger',$logger);

Then in my action I call

$logger = Zend_Registry::get('logger');
$logger->log('This is a log message!', Zend_Log::INFO);

I've ran print_r on $logger and know my object is setting up fine and I'm not receiving any error messages but don't see anything in Firebug's console.  I have the Net panel enabled and my user agent is "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120122 Firefox/3.0.5 FirePHP/0.2.1".  

Any suggestions would be appreciated. :)

What response headers are you getting?

[Justin]

Here are the headers, hopefully they display right.

And the request headers if they help:

Nothing is being sent to the browser.

Any chance you can try this with a more recent version of ZF before I try and figure out what could be wrong?

[Justin]

Found my problem it was my own fault, ironically enough caused by something I'm planning on eliminating with firephp.

In my code I was calling die() in the action to get around creating a view.  In doing so, I never allowed for the logger to actually output the data to php bug.   The "nothing is being sent to the browser" tipped me off, thanks for pointing me in the right direction.  

Hopefully this post will help someone with a similar problem.
