Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Here's what I really found useful (52K img)
Gets me a whole lot. The x-ray debugger thing is fab for digging out what needs to be changed.

New pointclickdrool
Is what I'm trying to point out, and the DOM inspector/EMACS doesn't do that.

Although the Firebug extension for Firefox is pretty neat.

New Firebug++

Also I'll second my suggestion from last night that you should get a WebKit nightly build and play with the new web inspector it has.

--\r\nYou cooin' with my bird?
New Buh?
I'm not talking about the DOM Inspector.

I'm talking about the Web Developer toolbar, and the Edit CSS feature. There are a number of other extensions that do similar things as well.

New Give Firebug a try.

--\r\nYou cooin' with my bird?
New Why would I thank you later?
I've been using it for months. ;-)

Firebug is great for debugging AJAX too.

New How does it handle JS classes?
I had a wierd problem with some AJAX-ified JavaScript a few months ago and got to the point of trying to see what I could see in Venkman.

It couldn't see my class functions*. :-O

I eventually solved whatever problem it was another way, but still.

Wade.

* For those who don't know, these are functions created as object elements, either directly with the object literal notation, or by assigning inline function declarations. I find they are great for namespace management.

New Haven't tried that.
I was referring more to the AJAX request console, which shows you what gets POSTed and returned.

New How were they defined?

Depending on exactly which syntax you use to define your functions, you can end up with their names not being visible to various debuggers.

--\r\nYou cooin' with my bird?
New Don't remember exactly.
I know they weren't using the 'normal' function name() { ... } notation. I remember that because the page still had one or two functions like that and Venkman could see those.

But it couldn't see functions defined like this:

\nvar search_dropdown = {\n    keyword: document.ticketsearch.search_keyword,\n    list: {\n        'issue': document.ticketsearch.search_keyword_issue,\n        'product': document.ticketsearch.search_keyword_product,\n        'code': document.ticketsearch.search_keyword_code\n    },\n    check: function(el) {\n        this.keyword.style.display = 'none'\n        for( other in this.list )\n            this.list[other].style.display = 'none'\n        if( el.value in this.list )\n            this.list[el.value].style.display = 'inline'\n        else\n            this.keyword.style.display = 'inline'\n    },\n    set: function(el) {\n        if( el.value in this.list )\n            this.keyword.value = this.list[el.value].value\n    }\n}\nsearch_dropdown.check(document.ticketsearch.search_where)\n


Wade, whose just realized his style of JavaScript programming is being put on show...

New I was using it to debug some javascript
and css and found the UI to be really confusing.

So there's a little red ex and number in the corner, I click it, and all the panes are blanks. So where's the error? Fuck if I can tell what it is whinging about. It showed me a couple things, but it needs some work.
