Use the debugger; keyword, it's more reliable right now and works
fine. Just put:
debugger;
in your code and the debugger stops, similar to MSSE functionality.
Great feature!
I just posted this to the Dojo forum and I'll post here in case it
helps people:
As a longtime MSSE user, I would agree, I have waited years for
something as powerful and life altering for web developers as FireBug
1.0.
THANKYOU with all my heart. My life is better today than it was last
year, and this tool is a big part of that.
A huge step up in functionality from previous FireBug versions, 1.0 is
a new standard in web development tools unparalleled in many ways by
any other tool available today.
I would definately put in my vote to license for commercial use, as my
company would not pay the fee otherwise, but would gladly pay for such
a powerful, and now absolutely required tool for web development.
I would suggest:
$25 per developer seat or
$100 per 5 developer seats
Something like that is very reasonable and would help make FireBug a
much better tool that it is today. I think you should reconsider
commercial licensing, as perhaps the best solution is to do both.
Firebug needs the commercial community support that such a requirement
would lend to your efforts.
And while we are at it, just wanted to put in my vote for my top 5
required web development tools:
1) Firebug - definately the best tool out there today, the CSS
visualization is incredible! Now supports the embedded debugger;
keyword like MSSE. Also does HTTP monitoring, all in one easy to use
and understand package. Wow!
2) MSSE - comes with MS Office as an add-on, a close second, when
paired with the MS Web Developer toolbar is decent and has better
stack tracking, better options to invoke debugging (like open on next
click in canvas).
3) MS Web Developer toolbar - only because it's necessary to pair with
MSSE to get Firebug-like functionality, I think the ruler is really
nice and I don't think Firebug has this feature (yet).
4) Fiddler - autoconfigures as a proxy for IE, manually for Firefox,
no longer necessary in firefox since Firebug has similar functionality
now.
5) ColorPic - I use this pretty often to find a given color, would
love to see this built into Firebug.
For more info on MSSE debugger for IE6 and ie7, I have an installation
and use page to help people get going with it:
http://www.ajaxhead.com/javascript/debug_javascript.html
Hope this helps people out with cross-brower development, as Firebug
won't help you with IE right now, but I can hope for some day this
might change.
Cheers,
Jeff-
Post by John J BartonOk thanks for following up. As a practical matter however
that bug report isn't very useful. If someone puts in a specific
test case I can look in to the problem. I don't have that problem
in my examples, so I can't try to find the cause using them.
John.
