I want to debug some Firefox extensions. I tried with two debugging tools - Chromebug and JavaScript Debugger (Venkman).

One of the extensions has the following structure:

  • components folder
  • content folder
  • platform folder
  • resource folder
    chrome.manifest
    install.rdf

Unfortunately I can't change the extension's structure and Chromebug doesn't catch JavaScript files in "components" folder, so I can't debug them.

For my bad luck JavaScript Debugger doesn't work as I expected and it stops on files, which don't have any breakpoints, so most of the time it's impossible to debug my files.

Am I doing something wrong or there is no way debug Firefox extensions without any problems?
