Venkman, the javascript debugger
December 6, 2005 – 10:54 pmI’ll admit it, I’ve fallen head over heels for Venkman. Sure the project page is outdated, sure Firefox 1.5 isn’t officially supported — but does that stop me from using it, hell no.
Venkman does work for Firefox 1.5, just requires a little hack that can be found here. I haven’t had any problems with this version and have heard no bad reports so I will assume it’s a fairly safe download.
Venkman’s usage isn’t ideal for AJAX applications, but I have yet to find something that fits that bill incredibly well. The whole asynchronous deal complicates debugging just like a multi-threaded program does.
For now, I’ll stick with this tool and when time permits, explore additional avenues.
