On a page I am debugging, there is a javascript clock. An onload event
starts a timer using setTimeout(), on each fire of the timer, the
content of an element #clock is modified. Page loads fine, timer and
clock runs as expected.

But if I Inspect Element on some other element of the page
#someElement, (so now I am within the HTML tab) every firing of the
timer pulls the focus from #someElement back to #clock.

Is this a bug?

If not, is there some way to use the debugger to disable a segment of
javascript code that has been loaded? My workaround so far has been to
simply remove the #clock element from the DOM. But since the timer is
still running  and attempts to update the content of the #clock
element, we get an error on every timer firing. Clogs the Console,
probably eats memory, etc.

Any ideas?

Thanks and cheers!
