Console.log in IE on an object just outputted [object Object]

All, I'm used to debugging JavaScript in Chrome or Firefox just because their built in developer tools are a lot cleaner than IE's.

I like being able to step through code as if I was in Visual Studio, and that is pretty nice ab...

Can you determine hasLayout in IE8's developer toolbar?

There was a lot of talk that IE8 was supposed to fix/remove hasLayout. Doesn't seem to have happened, though it's not usually an issue.

I have an ASCX component that has a lot of javascript declared in a script tag in the ascx itself.
