If you don’t know what Espresso is, it’s the upcoming integrated web development environment for Mac OS X. E-mail sent yesterday by the developer, MacRabbit, confirmed the status of those accepted into the beta program and I’m one of them.

I can’t wait to get my hand on this great application. I’m going to test it and check for bugs. I will Hopefully help the MacRabbit team and make Espresso a better application.

A small review of the application will come as soon as possible. The email stated that we will get our hands on the beta around November.

I do allot of JavaScript, and I love it allot because I think it’s very easy to use and understand. I do not see my self as an expert, but I would like to share with you some of my notes and tips on how I usually debug JavaScript in my favorite browser FireFox.

For JavaScript debugging tools I like to use the great add-on for FireFox called Firebug which you can get from the FireFox add-ons website for free.

You can also get it from Firebug´s site.

Firebug helps you develop web applications easier. You can edit, debug and monitor CSS, HTML, and JavaScript live on any web page.

You can easily debug in the browser and get what you want, instead of going back and fixing the code and going back again to the browser and refreshing to see the update.

I’m going to show you how I work with JavaScript debugging.
