| | |
| You can use <tt>dump()</tt> statements instead of <tt>alert()</tt> to display debug information for your extension. In order to see the <tt>dump()</tt> output, go to [[about:config]] (or edit [[user.js]] file), add new boolean pref '''browser.dom.window.dump.enabled''' and set its value to '''true'''.
| |
| | |
| Then start Mozilla (Suite, Firefox or Thunderbird) with '''-console''' parameter ([http://www.mozilla.org/docs/command-line-args.html more information]):
| |
| mozilla -console
| |
| | |
| '''Note:''' you must have all mozilla instances closed before running the command, if not the console will not appear.
| |
| | |
| You should now see <tt>dump()</tt> output in the opened console window.
