It is a great tool for web development. I have used it several times
to validate my javascript code.
But javascript is such a complex programming language that advanced
concepts like closures
have always stumped me. I still don't understand them. And
spidermonkey cannot help
with such things I think.
For that we have firebug, a Netscape plugin which is the greatest
friend for any web developer.
We will look at that tomorrow.
