  5. Web Browser Debugging Tool Links

  6. Troubleshooting Demos

  7. JavaScript, Flex and Silverlight Demos • JavaScript API Debugging (Firebug | Aptana) – Console logging, HTTP Traffic monitoring, code stepping and error trapping • Silverlight API Debugging (Fiddler | Visual Studio) – HTTP Traffic monitoring, code stepping and error trapping • Flex API Debugging (Charles | Flash Builder) – Binary HTTP Traffic monitoring, code stepping and error trapping

  8. What about Debugging Viewers? • Silverlight Viewer Add-in Debugging (Fiddler | Visual Studio) – Attaching to Process, HTTP Traffic monitoring and code stepping • Flex Viewer Widgets – These are debugged using the same technique as standard Flex API applications
