Anyone know how you get the yellow popup to appear when inspecting javascript variables in chrome? Apparently you just hover over the variable when the debugger is paused to see a variables current state but for whatever reason I can't get this to work.
If you have no idea what I'm talking about checkout this screenshot:
We can then check what values are stored in any variable at that point of time. Click F12 to open Developer Tools in Chrome. Or we can right-click and select Inspect (Ctrl+Shift+I).
Method 1: Iterating through properties of the window object: The window object in JavaScript represents the current browser's window. The properties of this object can be used to find the variables of the Chrome browser. Each of the properties of the window object is first checked with the hasOwnProperty() method.
This happened to me before. Just close all Chrome instances or restart it. This should fix the problem.
I have no idea why this wasn't working but I tired a clean install of chrome on a different user profile on my mac and worked fine. So I went back and dumped all the preferences and application support files and turned off all extension on my profile and it worked!!! So moral of the story do a clean install of Chrome.
