I have a jqGrid and on change event I do something. Within this event I want to show in the console something but this message is not shown in the console. For example:

$(function () {
    $('#_jqGrid').on('change', function () {
        console.log('jqGrid changed!');
        $.event.trigger('Added');
    });
});

Why is the message not shown in Internet Explorer console with debugging tools?

Which version of IE? You may need to open the debug tools and the refresh the page (so that the page loads with the tools open). – gen_Eric Oct 02 '13 at 13:18
The console object isn't created until you open DevTools ; see original post [HERE](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/690251/what-happened-to-console-log-in-ie8) – Stphane Oct 02 '13 at 13:21
IE7 has this issue to...although most of the time it should just throw an error saying `Console is undefined` or some crap. – tymeJV Oct 02 '13 at 13:23
@tymeJV: I think even IE9 has the same issue. – gen_Eric Oct 02 '13 at 13:24
`console` is not supported by IE – Satpal Oct 02 '13 at 13:24
@Satpal: Yes it is. You just need to have the dev tools opened *before* the page loads. – gen_Eric Oct 02 '13 at 13:24
I have i.e 10 and i have dev tools opened. Even if I put an alert instead, alert is ignored...maybe because it is whithin an event handler? – user304602 Oct 02 '13 at 13:26
@user304602: Have you tried to trigger that event? Have you tried to change `#_jqGrid`? – gen_Eric Oct 02 '13 at 13:51
Yes, the event is triggered correctly. – user304602 Oct 02 '13 at 14:32
@user304602: I've never used `jqGrid`, but maybe it overrides your event handlers with its own? – gen_Eric Oct 02 '13 at 17:44
