I'm trying to understand how to use firebug to debug my Javascript. So I have the HTML listed below. And I want to set a watch expression on the var 's'. I went to the Script tab of Firebug and opened the Watch pane and entered s into the area that says "New watch expression".
I get an error:
ReferenceError: s is not defined
Why?
