I just got the new firefox and tried to use Javascript debugger using "Debug URL". Netbeans tries to download netbeans-firefox-extension.xpi but firefox will not allow it to be installed, as its not for FF3.0.1 (it worked when I had FF3.0.0). My main goal is to try to debug javascripts in my PHP Projects? Can this be done? I am stumbling on this and do not know how this could be done. I am trying to create a website which has PHP, HTML and Javascript, that is why I wanted to be able to debug Javascript in my PHP project. Any help is appreciated. I have Netbeans 6.5M (Web & JEE version) I have Firebug 1.1.010b Running on Windows XP
Currently only Firefox 2 is supported. We are working on supporting Firefox 3. For now you can download Firefox 2, configure it using Tools:Option:General: Web Browser: Firefox in the NetBeans IDE. Yes you can debug the JavaScript in PHP projects by turning on Client side debugging in PHP project properties dialog - Debug category.

Thank you. I downgraded to Firefox and the extension is now installed. However, I still do not see the "Debug" category in the PHP Project Properties. I only see the following: - Sources - Run Configuration - PHP Include Path I downloaded JavaScript debugger plugin, but its grayed out in the though it is installed. I would appreciate if you could let me know what I am not doing properly?
The JavaScript debugger is now part of the trunk 6.5 development distribution. You should not install the Technology Preview nbms. I just installed the netbeans-hudson-trunk-2944-php.zip and verified 5 categories for the project popup: Sources, Run Config, PHP Include Path, JavaScript Libraries and Debug. It looks like you downloaded the javaee package. You should either download the php or the full distribution. Also, while working with dev builds, you may want to be sure that you are using a fresh new userdir, that is, rename the .netbeans/dev to something else if you want to keep it (or delete). A new dev directory will be created for you. Please close this bug and file a new one for any further issues. Thanks.
