I have no problem to debug an inline javascript. I use an external javascript in a .js-file. The function consists of a very long line with many commands.
1. is there a tool to get this function structured in many lines?
2. if I debug in, it only shows the next line, not the next command. So I cannot debug, because the script consist of only one line.
3. It seems that it is called with a timer or like that. Because if I have a breakpoint there it is always called after a I run the script.
4. It is called by a button with onclick=”return …..;” I cannot set there a breakpoint, not for calling the button, but for clicking on the button?

Thanks for help.

thats kinda lame that you sample file is only downloadable with “esnips downloader” which happens to only be an .exe, kind of ironic though since javascript is meant to break the platform restrictions.

Agreed with TravisO, one of the most effective tutorials I’ve read in a very, very long time. Thorough, detailed, yet well done. Learned a lot, and I’ll definitely come back to it.

Once again, well written! Appreciate it!

Cheers,
David
