You should try the Firebug Firefox Extension [1]. I use it on Bon Echo
(Firefox 2.0 alpha) which is much faster than the 1.5 version.

Webkit is a better safari debugging environment

Also I find the hack below quite nice for debugging every once in a while

if( !confirm(debugging info) ) halt;



"halt" throws a parse error only if you press cancel on the confirmation
box.

Safari has a built-in debugger that is nearly useless, and on top of that,
hidden by default.  Google for safari javascript console and you should find
instructions on how to enable it.  It will tell you when it has errors, but
provide little to no information about what they are.  Someone else may have
more info for you.



Force Quit on Mac = Cmd+Option+Esc (Cmd is the apple logo key).

 Subject: [Rails-spinoffs] OT: Debugging iBook --- help




This is way OT, but here goes...





I've had an iBook for 2 days now and am debugging a web built with
prototype/script aculo / windows / etc...  I have no real experience on a
Mac.





Occasionally, there's no better way to debug JavaScript than an alert in a
loop... Once I have the information information I want from the alert, the
loop may want to execute another 300 times.  I have no idea how to kill
Safari like I would do on a PC: CTRL+ALT+DEL, select the task, and stop.
Any help on how to abort Safari when it is hovering on an alert?





Second,  any suggestion as to a good JavaScript debugger for Safari?
