Debugging JSP and Javascript

Question

Is it possible to debug JSP and javascript codes?

I am a back end developer but for some reason I have to deal with JSP and javascript. I try to put a breakpoint but it doesn't work.

Alert is not an option since I want to see the flow of the code execution.

May this helps:- http://stackoverflow.com/questions/609316/debug-javascript-in-eclipse — Naman, Apr 14 '16 at 06:44

In terms of JavaScript code you have a few options as most main stream browsers come with JavaScript development tools. These tools provide features such as breakpoints and variable watching.

Some examples are:

I haven't got much experience in JSP myself but friends of mine who do recommend IntelliJ.

I don't need other IDE since I am already using Eclipse. Google Chrome debug tool works fine in JSP and Javascript. – Empress T Apr 14 '16 at 06:59
