In VS.NET 2005, No need to put Debugger(in VS.NET 2003) keyword
in your javascript. it will automatically debug the code, but before that, make
sure the following in IE
IE and VS.NET both ship with nice javascript debugging support; here is the
simple steps to get it to work:
1. Turn off "Disable script debugging". In IE go to Tools, Options, Avanced
Tab and in the "Browsing" section make sure that "Disable script debugging" is
NOT checked. Accept that change.
2. Open up VS.NET into your favorite solution, which of course includes some
javascript markup.
3. Run the solution.
4. Once the project is ran, and the IE window is open jump back over to VS.NET.
5. Under the Debug menu, Windows, choose Script Explorer. This should show a
window on the right side with a list of the running documents. It should show
the aspx page any any .js files you have included. Open up any of the .JS
files and set breakpoints in your code. Once the script is executed it should
stop at your breakpoints and give you all the current watch funcationality that
you have come to expect from
VS.NET.
Followings are important steps while debugging with Mozilla:
Mozilla has a project named "Venkman" just for debugging.
Here is what I did in order to get this to work:
1. Install the extension from http://www.hacksrus.com/~ginda/venkman/
Note: In order to get Firefox to actually install this you need to add the
"hacksrus.com" to your trusted sites. I dont trust this guy so what I did was
right click the XPI and saved it to my desktop. From there you can click and
drag it into a Firefox window which it will then install it. Also, remember
that an XPI is just a zip file with a bunch of content. Feel free to rename
the .XPI file to a .ZIP and take a peek whats inside.
2. Once you have the extension installed you will need to recycle the browser,
do so now.
3. Open up the Javascript debugger. It can be found under Tools, Javascript
debugger.
4. Open up the page you need to debug and set a breakpoint wherever you like.
It also supports things like stepping over, into and out.
