Hi,
I am starting out with Firebug.
I have a JS file that has some JQuery in it.
how do I debug that code when the HTML page rendered does not have any javascript just ref to my file.
thanks Malcolm

If you go to the script tab there'll be a little drop down box that will you let you select any scripts linked to in the page. Won't help you much if they're minified though...

Open Firebug. Click on "Script" then choose your external JS-File from the dropdown menu.

How did you link the JavaScript-files from the HTML-page? Can you post some code?

you need to enable the "script" by going to "Net" section in firebug

Ok I discovered that my path to the JS file was wrong and now fixed it and Firebug sees it Net tab. BUT the Script menu still does not have any script file????

You can add "debugger;" string before the line which you want to debug.
This will invoke Firebug's JS debugger.
