Awesome script!  Thanks for the link.  I'll never write another alert('here'); again!

Damn I happy now! :D

FYI, if you've been using firebug (as you should), you can use "window.console.log(output goes here)" to output to the firebug console.  This is especially handy since instead of giving you a generic [html object] when passed an HTML element, firebug will give you the full tag with attributes and a link to the element in the DOM explorer.  Additionally, arrays will be displayed in shorthand [item1, item2, item3] form.

Unfortunately, this only works with firefox.  I personally use this custom function when developing across multiple browsers.  It utilizes the console if available, otherwise reverts to old school alert method.

function log(s)

{

window.console ? window.console.log(s) : alert(s);

}

I  use firebug for development and then check all the other browsers every time I change anything.  Tedious, maybe, but far superior to designing the page in it's entirety only to discover that something somewhere along the way broke IE6.

Ehh.. I should have known about this earlier! So I wouldn't have spent a whole night programming it on my own... But never mind, this way i got some practice in creating js windows. Though my version lacks the resize function, but it is semi transparent (so doesn't hide website content) also can be dragged, cleared and closed, and stands of just one file.

So I can agree: if you begin to use such a tool, you will never want to program js without it. :)

I'm search for a javascript function cabable to dump object, array and html DOM object like firebug. I want to use it with IE6.
