Just thought I would mention how handy Firefox’s built in Error Console feature is for debugging – I mostly use this for Javascript, in fact I can;t even remember using it for anything else.

But in any case if you run into the same problems I do with Javascript this is a handy tool for catching the issue at ahnd.

To bring up your Error Console just choose Tools > Error Console from the Firefox top menu.

Then go to the page where you suspect your problem and the console will give you clues.

I have also installed Firebug add-on which looks to have a load of potential for more detailed debugging, but I haven’t really spent enough time on it yet to tell you my thoughts. I will eventually.
