Debuging functions (United States) Modified By Ryan Mick on 11/3/2008 2:04:56 PM

Here are a couple of helpful debuging function for javascript. The first function will display a popup with properties of the passed in object "o" in 20 element increments. The second function displays the properties of the passed in object "o" in a new window. To use these functions is very easy, just pass it a reference to an object. If you are doing a lot of DHTML of client side validation these functions can save you quite a headache. Please let me know if you have any questions.

// This function will show all properties for the object passed in...
function displayObjProperties(o) {
var result = "";
    count = 0;
    for (var i in o) {
        result += o + "." + i + "=" + o[i] + "\n";
        count++;
        if (count == 20) {
             result);
            result = "";
            count = 0;
        }
    }
     result);
}

function displayObjPropertiesInWindow(o){
    var result = "";
    count = 0;
    for (var i in o) {
        result += o + "." + i + "=" + o[i] + "\n";
    }
    var win = window.open();
    win.document.write("<CODE>" + result + "</CODE>");
}
