buggering debuggers
What exactly is the point of a debugger that changes the environment
so much that code runs differently?

When I run this javascript in normal mode it is broken. When I run it
in the debugger the variables evaluate to what they "should" be, but I
cannot actually run the code with the debugger running. Aside from
the fact that no user will ever have it.

Instead I am slowly building up an example/test file from scratch to
the needed complexity and trying to see at what point it breaks. It
now does almost everything I want and doesn't break. But my code is
still broken and is not very different from the running test code.

BENDER: Me? You really want a robot for a friend?
FRY: Yeah, ever since I was six.
BENDER: Well, okay, but I don't want people thinking we're robosexuals, so if anyone asks, you're my debugger.

I had something semi-intelligent to say before I read sinnicks comment. Now I'm laughing inappropriately.

I am discovering (or percieving) a real issue with client-side javascript trying to work with server side jsp code. Maybe I'm an asshole for even thinking the two could work together :-P
