Often code is obfuscated, especially JS code. Which of course is where the issue is that you are trying to find/fix. It would be a little helpful if the code could be pretty-printed for readability. Of course line numbers wouldn't match, so this would probably have to be a view that can be switched between it and the non-pretty-printed view.

If this worked in the same way as OmniWeb's implementation, which allows you to reformat the page source so that it is all indented nicely, or provides a view to what the nicely displayed text looks like, that would be great. I also like that way that in that view it highlight elements with syntax errors or other problems.

If we do this we need to remap breakpoints or simply disable breakpoints and debugging with the pretty source. Obviously debugging would be useful so we should make it work with the pretty source.

How and where was this implemented? Was/is it V8 only? I don't see it in WebKit for Safari.

(In reply to comment #10) > How and where was this implemented? Was/is it V8 only? I don't see it in WebKit for Safari. JavaScript is formatted on front-end side, v8 is not engaged. Last time I checked it worked in Safari, just click "{}" icon at the bottom bar of scripts panel.
