Sorry that the images weren't showing up... my ISP decided to let the servers rest over the weekened, apparently :) Images and ISP are both back online.

You could even debug javascript with no server-side code...even with the simple HTML only account EarthLink used to provide me with.

But, Kirk, help me out here. What is new with 2008? I've heard a LOT about 2008/Orcas can now debug Javascript...but So could 2005...following almost the exact steps you outlined here. Even better, if you were smart about how you did it, with 2005, you could debug Javascript just through the "Run/F5" button...no need to attach to process.

I do this every day and don't use 2008, yet.

Am I missing something...why all the hype lately??

@Steve - of course, the hype is because we have a new version coming out :) No, seriously... there have been a number of improvements to the debugging experience. Here's a good side-by-side of VS2005 and VS2008:

@Steve - one more thing is that debugging is only half of the story... now you get Intellisense for JavaScript as well on the development side. For once, we have a very good story around JavaScript. Add in Intellisense for Silverlight 1.0, and it's a pretty compelling story for web developers.

Kirk, thanks for the links. They did help me understand what's new for 2008. I just kept hearing "2008 has Jscript debugging!" and all I could think was "Umm, so did 2005...and my memory sucks but didn't 2003 also?"

BUT, you're right...your story just got a lot better because for years I've just been setting breakpoints (or calling debugger; lines) and using the immediate window to interrogate my variables and the DOM to figure out why my beautiful code wasn't working. Interrogating that stuff using the UI will be a lot better.

And yeah, It'll be nice to have decent Intellisense with Javascript without having to pay for Visual Assist X.

This functionality exists in Visual Studio 2005, and I use it on a daily basis! :D

I use VS 2005 and have used 2003 or js debugging. I thought it was pretty slick. Then I discovered firebug (only works in FireFox). Firebug encompasses a js debugger, DOM viewer, and http monitor all in one plugin. Intellisense? Bah!
