Writing to the JavaScript Console
console.log("This is Debug"); //"This is Debug" is displayed in console var x=5; console.log("x="+x): //"x=5" is displayed in console
The JavaScript console can be an important tool when debugging problems in your jQuery and JavaScript code. The console log is simply a location where you can view data output from the JavaScript code. Each of the major browsers has a console log tool that displays the output.
To output data to the console log, use console.write(DEBUG_STRING) and pass it the text that you want to display on the console.
