Firebug makes Firefox unresponsive

I am a beginner web developer. I use Firebug a lot to debug my JavaScript.

The problem is that there are some script files from my page UI that have a lot of code and this is causing my web browser to be unresponsive i.e. a dialog pops up saying the script is not responding. This mostly happens when I am in the Firebug script panel.

How can I handle this?

I tried to find a solution to this problem and nothing.

As for the answer, I think the best has been posted by @Pablo (can't assign a response to the comment unfortunately) and he just tries to use the google chrome console. None of the problems I mentioned exist here.

I had the same problem debugging some of our old scripts that use the function extensively eval()

. This results in many scripts being displayed in the Script Location Menu . (Every dynamically generated script is represented there.)

A possible solution, given that it was caused by the number of files in my instance, might mean you can work around the problem entirely by using fewer source files for the same code. Using a "built-in" version of whatever frameworks you use can alleviate the problem. (In particular, if they are still debugged in a constructed form.)



If that doesn't work, you can try debugging with Firefox's built-in debugger (available via Ctrl+ Shift+ S. (Or switch to another browser to debug, but this is obviously a much less desirable solution.)
