Microsoft Script Debugger

Welcome to the Microsoft Script Debugger.

Script Debugger Announced
Microsoft Corporation has just unveiled the Microsoft Script Debugger, a debugging environment that extends Internet Explorer 3.01 by allowing web developers to create, browse, edit, and debug scripted HTML pages. The Microsoft Script Debugger is the first environment that allows users to debug scripted HTML, thus offering a seamless approach to building dynamic HTML web pages that contain elements from multiple scripting languages. Designed to meet the current demands of Web authors, the Microsoft Script Debugger is a free add-in to Internet Explorer 3.01.

The Microsoft Script Debugger makes it easy to debug scripted HTML pages written in VBScript or JScript (Microsoft's implementation of JavaScript™). Scripting languages are essential components of dynamic Web pages that allow developers to link and automate a wide variety of objects in their Web pages, including ActiveX™ Controls and Java applets.

Features

Dynamic viewing of HTML structure
You can dynamically view your entire Web project. When the active page changes, so does your view.
Multiple Language Integration
Seamlessly move from VBScript to JScript and vice versa. The Microsoft Script Debugger completely integrates the debugging environment so transitions from one language to the other is invisible.
Breakpoints
Set breakpoints anywhere in your script code allowing you to stop to examine variables or evaluate expressions in the context of the language you're using.
Stepping through code
Step through your code one step at a time, or step over or out of procedures in your code. And, you can step from a procedure in VBScript to a procedure in JScript and vice versa, all without changing tools.
Integrated Call Stack
Your VBScript and JScript code will appear seamlessly integrated as the Call Stack from each is combined, giving the appearance of a single Call Stack.
Code coloring
View HTML documents with syntax-colored script code. Code is colored using whatever scheme is appropriate for the language you're using.
Immediate expression evaluation
Using the Immediate Window, you can immediately evaluate an expression in the context of the Call Stack, or test new code. Use the syntax of the language you're debugging in the Immediate window, whether it's VBScript or JScript.

Use the

Microsoft Script Debugger to troubleshoot your scripting code more effectively!
