Is there any standard way of debugging Javascript on a webpage that’s being accessed from a htmlLoader component inside of an Adobe Air application?

I have a web app built using Javascript that works perfectly within the browser. One of the main elements of its user interface is that when you right click on an image, a context menu appears specific to that image.

I’m trying to embed access to this web app within an Adobe Air application. To this end, I’ve added an htmlLoader that accesses the URL and displays it in the Air application. It works perfectly – except that, after navigating away from the web app’s landing page, the context menus no longer display when an image is right-clicked.

I’m thinking this must have something to do with the Javascript when run in Adobe Air (all other aspects of the web app continue to work), but it’s hard to go about figuring out what’s wrong when the Javascript works perfectly in IE/Chrome/Etc but not inside of Air. I’m very doubtful anything like Firebug exists for Flash Builder/Adobe Air, but it seemed worth asking.

    There is AIR Introspector. It’s a script that you add to the app (remove during production) that acts like Firebug Lite. It has a console and HTML structure viewer.

    And I think you can also use Firebug Lite as well.
