Hi All,
I have inherited a web page that includes lots of javascript. When I
click on some things, the CPU utilization on the browser machine goes
to 100% and the browser becomes unresponsive until it is done doing
whatever it is doing.
Is there any clever way (in any browser) to interrupt or pause the
execution of the javascript so that I can identify what is running
that is taking so long?

Any way you find is going to fall into the category of "debugging" .

If you install MSD (Microsoft Script Debugger) or Visual Studio, then in
IE, you can select View->ScriptDebugg er->Break at Next Statement, and it
will stop immediately on the next executed line of script. In Visual
Studio you can look at the call stack and find out where you are and
where you came from.
I think there's a tool from Yahoo (the YUI team) that will show you
what's going on in your script. It's meant for performance tweaking. I
tried it once for a couple of minutes. I think it's called YSlow (or
something like that) and runs in Firefox.

The best JavaScript debugger I've seen is "Firebug" for Firefox. You
can edit, debug, and monitor CSS, HTML, and JavaScript live in any web

You can't do what the OP wants though. Make it "interrupt" the currently
running script.

Hi,
A few strategically placed alerts() can help a lot to pin down the part
that is demanding a lot of the CPU.
Simply examine the scripts, do an alert before something starts.
During the alert-box javascript waits for you to press ok.
If it takes a long time to the next alert, you know roughly where to
investigate futher.
It is not the most elegant way, but it helped me out a few times. :-)

Erwin Moller

I believe that is what the breakpoints are for.

I previously posted a question about how to do populate an html table
dynamically with results from JavaScript Math and basic math. Dr Clue
responded and this started the learning curve. I think the terminology
for what I want to do is pass variables to the <td> 'workspace' (half
this statement might make sense).
The problem I am having is being overwhelmed with understanding the
context of each new statement, syntax etc.

Hi,
I have been reading the article at
http://www.crockford.com/javascript/private.html
and I was wondering if there also was some way to be able to have
private methods that can be called from public methods, but not from
outside.
Just throwing an exception if a private method was called from outside
would be sufficient, but I don't know how to determine if the method was
called from outside. Anyone else thought about doing this?

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
