Question

I was wondering if I could clear up the console with some command..

console.log(), can print… is there a command to clear up console?..

I’ve tried to console.log(console); and got this functions below…

assert: function assert() { [native code] }
constructor: function Console() { [native code] }
count: function count() { [native code] }
debug: function debug() { [native code] }
dir: function dir() { [native code] }
dirxml: function dirxml() { [native code] }
error: function error() { [native code] }
group: function group() { [native code] }
groupEnd: function groupEnd() { [native code] }
info: function info() { [native code] }
log: function log() { [native code] }
markTimeline: function markTimeline() { [native code] }
profile: function profile() { [native code] }
profileEnd: function profileEnd() { [native code] }
time: function time() { [native code] }
timeEnd: function timeEnd() { [native code] }
trace: function trace() { [native code] }
warn: function warn() { [native code] }
__proto__: Object

[ I guess there’s no way to clear up the console… but I wanted someone to say it to me… ]

Update: console.clear() is available in all browsers

Update: As of November 6, 2012, console.clear() is now available in Chrome Canary.

If you type clear() into the console it clears it.

I don’t think there is a way to programmatically do it, as it could be misused. (console is cleared by some web page, end user can’t access error information)

one possible workaround:

in the console type window.clear = clear, then you’ll be able to use clear in any script on your page.
