Starting Script Debugger

[AndrewMB]

I am developing web pages using Jscript scripts, on Windows ME with IE6. I have installed the appropriate version of Microsoft Script Debugger, but I can't start it. It appears on the View menu in IE, but doesn't start when requested. Script errors also don't produce a message which allows the debugger to start.

I have script debugging enabled on IE options.

I also use Microsoft HTML Help workshop, which normally produces an informative message when it encounters a script error. However installing script debugger seems to prevent even this message appearing.

Any ideas?

Under IE you also have to enable the checkbox next to script debugging that states something about displaying notification on every script error.

Thanks - I have done this. However View... Script debugger... Open still does nothing. And if I introduce an error into my script, the message I get doesn't offer a debug option.

Well, I have never worked with Microsoft Script Debugger personally. I like to use Mozilla Firefox and their JavaScript error reports at work. On my personal notebook I use Safari Activity and that will specify all my script needs.
