Topic awaiting preservation: JavaScript debugger

Does anyone know of any good debugging tools/apps for JavaScripts?

Somebody mentioned that Mozilla had a debugging tool but there's got to be a better way of checking your code. :-/

Did you even try Mozilla's javascript debugger and console?

Of course! I'm just collecting alternatives here. Don't like to put all my eggs in one basket, you know? ;-)

The poster has demanded we remove all his contributions, less he takes legal action.
We have done so.
Now Tyberius Prime expects him to start complaining that we removed his 'free speech' since this message will replace all of his posts, past and future.
Don't follow his example - seek real life help first.

In other words the answer is "not that we know of" unless you want to script them yourself.

A co-worker sent us a mail few days ago, about Microsoft Script Debugger. He seems to uses it to debug some code in modalDialog and such.

Anyway I haven't yet installed it I usually put my hopes in some good old document.body.style.backgroundColor changes or alert( 1 ); alert( 2 ) ...

Whatever, if someone feels ok to enlight me on how to use VENCKMAN ( Mozilla's javascript debugger ), I'm all open.

I usually just use alert()s and the little trick mentioned here by reitsma (which I believe he got from me originally). On rare occasions, I've used the Mozilla JavaScript Debugger, but I find it a little too clunky usually.
