JScript Debugging: Made easy with IE8

Web Development Tools Microsoft
Web Development Tools Microsoft

Web Development Tools Microsoft
Web Development Tools Microsoft

It should be no surprise that JScript Documentation Comments power much of what you see in JScript IntelliSense in VS2008.  Perhaps the most useful of these comments is the "reference" comment.  The "reference" comment allows you to "see" functions and objects outside of your current file in the completion list.  I've gotten quite a ...

Web Development Tools Microsoft
Web Development Tools Microsoft

VS2005 introduced the ability to validate your markup and CSS for standards compliance alongside your code.  It’s a great feature, but it can be frustrating when you’re looking for that one critical compilation error underneath a pile of validation errors.  Well, we heard your feedback and added two new options in VS2008 (post-Beta 2): 1)...
