I have been trying to learn how to troubleshoot JS errors in Firebug
and IE forever but I am really stumped and don;t know how to proceed.

For instance, I have several Joomla sites where the default Mootools
and JQuery files in Joomla throw errors in firebug and IE8. Now, these
are the default JS files, not something I added and when I try to
trace the error (which is at best obscure in both FB and IE) often I
get to the Mootools or JQuery code but once I am there I have no idea
on how to proceed. IN IE I often cannot even get there.

Clearly, I am missing something big and I suspect that may be partly
due to my ignorance in JS and the DOM. I know how they work, but I
certainly cannot troubleshoot them.

Now, the same was true for a lot of other stuff but usually I can
research things and eventually they start making sense. JS
troubleshooting, especially in IE has me completely stumped. If there
was someone offering a course online I would take it.

If any JS and DOM guru is reading this, I would love it if you point
me in the right direction on where to start in understanding this. Do
I need to take a tutorial on the DOM? Do I need more JS Knowledge
(that'd be obvious, but I have 10 JS books and none really go into
troubleshooting).

Any help and pointers would be greatly appreciated.
