I’m trying to debug a script written in javascript that runs on a conduit toolbar. for now i’m using simply
window.alert("function x is working");
but this is very disturbing in case of many alerts as the script grows bigger. i would prefer to write log or debug messages into FireBug or Chrome’s console, with:
console.log("function x is working");
as this is much more reasonable, but this code has no effect when this is ran from a javascript file i include in an html component on a conduit toolbar.
i have really tried to research this and similar issues with conduit toolbar api, but i see they are not really common subjects here on stack.. does anyone know of a forum or a good resource of information for conduit api usage? their official page is a little confusing for me.
really appriciate any help!
Couldn’t get much information on Conduit toolbar API here.
This is a work-around that i thought of, hope this can help others.
This is helpful if you need to use other matters related to your page as well, for example using Jquery to run code when tab is focused/blurred. By the way, Both the writing to the console and JQuery for tab-switching events ran on all browsers that i checked, which was a nice touch.
Of course for running Jquery the actual page requires the page to include jquery which you can also achieve by injecting it the same way. (At a certain cost)
i’m hoping this may help somebody.
