Post subject: Debugging your applets
Quote:
Although undocumented, the Netscape Navigator browser contains a Java console (under the Options menu). When this console is open, messages appear that are written to System.out.println from whatever Java applets happen to be running in your browser.
What your mother didn't tell you about the Java console
What isn't obvious to users is that the Java console accepts keyboard commands. There are 10 debugging "levels" (as the message displayed by the browser labels them) and 3 other keyboard commands in Navigator 3.0. Pressing the keys 0, 1, 2, ..., 9 sets the debugging-level information that the virtual machine will display. Pressing the keys D, F, and G will cause other actions, as described below. In Netscape Communicator 4.0, several more commands have been added, including a help command describing the keys that are valid as commands. If you press the "h" key you will get documentation for the new commands.
