Ask HN: Javascript debugger for IE?
I've been looking around for a while but I can't seem to find an up to date debugger for IE6/7/8. All recommendations referenced the MS Script Editor, but that is no longer available for download. Any other JS engineers know of a solution for debugging in IE?
- ObieJazz 18y agoI'm curious why you'd need such a thing. Are you dealing with a bug that shows up in IE but not in Firefox?
- geuis 18y agoYeah, I am. I'm currently having to deal with a horribly written java component library called Richfaces here at the office and I'm getting "missing object" errors in IE on one of their controls. Trying to identify where its originating from so I can bash it. I hate java, hate this framework because of the horrible front-end code it produces, and just glad I don't use this crap in my own projects.
- pasbesoin 18y agoThere is a "lite" version of Firebug that works in IE. http://getfirebug.com/lite.html http://getfirebug.com/lite.html Would that suffice? I haven't used it. At a quick look, it doesn't appear to enable the debugging features may be after, but I'll mention it just in case. (I'm no expert in this.)
