[javascript] How do you launch the JavaScript debugger in Google Chrome?

When using Google Chrome, I want to debug some JavaScript code. How can I do that?

Try adding this to your source:

debugger;

It works in most, if not all browsers. Just place it somewhere in your code, and it will act like a breakpoint.

Shift + Control + I opens the Developer tool window. From bottom-left second image (that looks like the following) will open/hide the console for you:

In Chrome 8.0.552 on a Mac, you can find this under menu View/Developer/JavaScript Console ... or you can use Alt+CMD+J.

Try adding this to your source:

debugger;

It works in most, if not all browsers. Just place it somewhere in your code, and it will act like a breakpoint.

Now google chrome has introduce new feature. By Using this feature You can edit you code in chrome browse. (Permanent change on code location)

For that Press F12 --> Source Tab -- (right side) --> File System - in that please select your location of code. and then chrome browser will ask you permission and after that code will be sink with green color. and you can modify your code and it will also reflect on you code location (It means it will Permanent change)
