Make the 'debugger' statement work in user-entered code in console

Posted on Jul 25, 2012 by Helpful Ox

Open console and paste:

var foo = function() {debugger; console.log('hello from foo')};

and then

foo();

Expected: we should have landed at the breakpoint What happened: only a message is logged into console.

Firebug: 1.10 Browser: 14.0.1 OS: Win XP SP3

FWIW, 'debugger' statement in custom code works in Chrome 20.
