Associating DOM elements with Javascript funtions

[Konstantinos Papakonstantinou]

Hello,

I am completely new to Firebug. I want to know if Firebug can show me the Javascript functions/code that an element may be associated with.

For example, choosing a button and Firebug directing me to the code that is triggered to run when clicking that button.

Thanks for your help.

There's a command called getEventListeners(), which allows to get all related event listeners. You may also be interested in the Firebug extension called Eventbug.
We also plan to integrate Eventbug into Firebug.

You can also use a function called break-on-next, which can stop
JavaScript execution on the next executed line
(e.g. at the line that is called after you click a button)
