Description Roman Mostyka 2008-04-25 18:38:08 UTC 
1. Install "JavaScript Debugger" plugin.
2. Create web application with JavaScript code.
3. Set breakpoint.
4. Rightclick breakpoint and choose "Breakpoint > Customize".
5. Check "Condition" checkbox, enter some condition and debug application.

Result: Debugger doesn't suspend on breakpoint.
I tried several conditions:
1) _topic="/jmaki/menu"
2) !(_topic="/jmaki/menu")
3) _topic="/jmaki/menu";
4) !(_topic="/jmaki/menu";)
Only last works. Probably I'm wrong in setting condition, but anyway why example 4) works, but 2) (the same as 4), but
without semicolon) doesn't.

The condition has to evaluate to a boolean expression. So you need to use the

==

or

===

operator to compare values. See: http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_operators.asp

Reopen if there is problem after correcting it.

Now it works and works correctly. Thanks Sandip.
