This is a known bug in Mozilla.

There is a bug in the jsd (the debugging module of the Mozilla engine) dealing with code defined by an eval statement. If the code run by the eval is brought up in the debugger, it is reported as the line of code which executed the eval itself, plus the line offset within the eval. Since Dojo uses xhr + eval to load all code outside of the bootstrap, this is what you will typically see throughout your callstack when attempting to debug Dojo code in Mozilla.

HTTP monitors and debuggers are tools that monitor the HTTP traffic to/from the server; they are essential for ajax debugging.

When you install Firefox, you should select the option for DOM inspector. This tool shows you the DOM tree after the dojo widgets have been expanded. It's indespensible.

There are similar tools for IE. We recommend Microsoft's own Developer Toolbar.

• Eclipse
• MyEclipse
• JSEclipse

Perhaps there is an extra comma at the end of a list. For example:
