Introduction

New to JavaScript programming? Or have you been away so long and don't know how it connects with other technology, frameworks, and buzzwords (MVC, JQuery, Anguilla,etc).

Chrome

Debug JavaScript in Chrome.

  1. Open page or start pop-up.
  2. Use CTRL+SHIFT+I to open the Developer tools (CTRL+SHIFT+J to jump straight to the JavaScript console).
  3. Select a script from the top-left dropdown and set a breakpoint by right-clicking on the left-side numbered lines.
  4. Close the console (CTRL+W to close any Chrome tab/pop-up)
  5. Re-run the page or pop-up and press CTRL+SHIFT+I to trigger the breakpoint.

Allow Breakpoints

You can also place "debugger;" in your .js to create a breakpoint.

You'll need to set the stripdebugstatements attribute to "false" in: %TRIDION_HOME%\web\WebUI\WebRoot\Configuration\System.config
