IEDeveloperToolbar is somewhat helpful, but kinda flaky. Honestly, though, 99% of the time I just use alert(). I have Firebug, but never use it since I develop on IE. As you said, that's what the vast majority of (and all of our intranet) users are on.
I know that is contrary to how many develop, but I feel it's better to develop on the weaker and more popular platform. If it works on IE, FF, Opera, and Safari are usually pretty close. It's better to find the bugs while you work, rather than build a lot of stuff only to find it fail in IE--where the debugging is limited. That's just my personal choice, but I don't have very many bugs. ;) Larry Jeffrey Kretz wrote: > There's a bit more overhead, but the free Visual Studio Web Express Edition > has a very good debugger: > > > > http://www.microsoft.com/express/vwd/Default.aspx > > > > I use Firebug as well, but I feel that this is the best IE debugger > available. > > > > JK > > > > _____ > > From: jquery-en@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Benjamin Sterling > Sent: Thursday, January 03, 2008 10:19 AM > To: jquery-en@googlegroups.com > Subject: [jQuery] Re: Debug Tools - Charles, DebugBar, Firebug Lite > > > > In IE I use a combination of DebugBar, IEDevelopemnt toolbar and Opera (IE > and Opera use more or less that same javascript engine and Opera has a nice > Error console).
