Hi Richard, For ColdFusion MX debugging, I would highly recommend FusionDebug from Intergral. A link with a coupon code can be found on my site: http://www.centrasoft.com/fusiondebug.cfm
For Javascript debugging, I would recommend FireBug for FireFox: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1843/ There are also other JS debugger on the market too, and any one of them should be able to do most tricks. Heck, the JS debugger with IE (not sure if it's packaged because of Visual Studio being installed) is pretty decent at figuring out problems. I think it's important to remember that debugging CF code and JS code are two different things. The only time that they'll probably intersect is if you're building the JS dynamically using CF code, and even then, technically, they're still 2 separate processes of code to debug. hth, Brian > Hi, > > I would first like to say a big thank you to every one that has helped > me over the last few weeks.
