Eventbug Watch JavaScript events finally in Firebug
- chrisbroadfoot 17y agoVery handy. I've wanted this for ages.
- fnid 17y agoVery nice! It's such a pain to figure out what is going to happen when events occur. This is going to accelerate complex js development substantially.
- nym 17y agoI like that it "[lists the] event targets that would be used as DOMEvent.currentTarget when event bubbles". Understanding event bubbling is a bit hard when you first do it. This will make it a lot easier.
- jeff18 17y agoSweet, the WebKit inspector has had this in the nightlies for a while. I like how this displays the source code inline, though. WebKit just displays the event object, which is a bit more awkward.
- geuis 17y agoThis is a nice addition, but I honestly could do without new Firebug features for a while. It already has 98% of the features I need on a daily basis, and they've all been getting progressively worse in performance for at least the last 6 months. For example, I fired up an older VM the other day that happened to have FF3 and Firebug 1.2 and was amazed that it was so blazing fast compared to what I'm used to with FF3.5 and Firebug 1.4+
- nym 17y agoThis is an extension to Firebug, not another built in feature. When you have to do some event detective work, you'll probably be glad it's around.
- jollyjerry 17y agoDo event delegation handler's like jquery's 'live' show up as handlers on the body element?
- s3b 17y agoyou may want to look at the javascript deobfuscator addon : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/10345 https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/10345 This add-on will show you what JavaScript gets to run on a web page, even if it is obfuscated and generated on the fly. Simply open JavaScript Deobfuscator from the Tools menu and watch the scripts being compiled/executed.
