I developed my project on IE + IE script debugger (the one that comes with MS Office or whatever). And a lot of alert statements. Also I found that using SQLiteManager (FF extension) helped. However, I never really played with breakpoints and stuff... though I admit that my worker threads are pretty simplistic and I found it very difficult to debug the worker. I did minimal debugging by sending messages from the worker... which isn't the best solution, but it helped somewhat.
