Answer 1

You can’t even develop in Chrome/firefox ? I would look at changing this, it would be like coding with one hand tied behind your back. My preferred method is using Chrome dev toolbar, but here are some other ways.

You can debug using a browser based debugger, for ie .

You could use the JSON.stringifiy and alert the output,the code is here

And there are these viewers as well http://jsonviewer.stack.hu/ and jollydroll

And finally you can loop through the different object properties like so :

 for(var propertyName in yourJSON){
     //will loop through the different elements in your json 
     alert(yourJSON[propertyName]); //will output the valueof each element
     alert(propertyName); //will output name of each element
}
