Comments on: Safari’s Web Inspector http://rossboucher.com/2008/04/21/safari-web-inspector/ Blog by Ross Mon, 07 Jun 2010 10:54:39 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: James Prudente http://rossboucher.com/2008/04/21/safari-web-inspector/comment-page-1/#comment-576 James Prudente Sat, 07 Jun 2008 18:10:50 +0000 http://rossboucher.com/2008/04/21/safari-web-inspector/#comment-576 I just discovered the new debugger in the webkit nightly build. Has a long ways to go to catch firebug, but I was able to break, walk through code and dump variables in the console. There is also a profiler which I was unable to get to produce actually timings, but it looks like its close to working. I had the same problems with Drosera (incredibly slow) and found it unusable. I think next time I have a safari bug to fix I'll give the new inspector a shot. I just discovered the new debugger in the webkit nightly build.
