I'm using Firebug to debug javascript. It keeps breaking at heaps of places even though there are no breakpoints set. So, I find myself playing through about 30 places in the jQuery library where the debugger is stopping.
I've probably accidentally set some setting to a value to make it do this. It is not the yellow pause button.
Does anyone recognise this symptom. How can I go back to productively debugging javascript, so that it only stops at breakpoint set by me?
The Firefox JavaScript Debugger The successor to Firebug, Firefox Developer tools, was integrated into the Firefox Web browser in a range of utilities. The JavaScript Debugger is part of that suite of tools and is free to use.
Set breakpoints in source code To set a breakpoint in source code: Click in the far left margin next to a line of code. You can also select the line and press F9, select Debug > Toggle Breakpoint, or right-click and select Breakpoint > Insert breakpoint. The breakpoint appears as a red dot in the left margin.
Just press c. It will continue execution until the next breakpoint.
I have found the solution to my problem. I just reset all options in Firebug.
To do this:
That cleared it up.
Cheers
I had the same problem firebug stopped in every exception. I am not sure from what version this exists but I have Firefox v59. In debugger tab disable "Ignore exceptions. Click to pause on uncaught exceptions". The right icon above "Watch expressions"
