JavaScript Breakpoint Properties: Event

You use this dialog box to set the properties of a JavaScript event breakpoint. You set event breakpoint properties when you set a new event breakpoint or when you modify an existing event breakpoint. You can open this dialog box by right-clicking an event breakpoint in the Breakpoints window and choosing Properties.

In this dialog box you select the action or actions that will trigger the breakpoint and pause execution of the script. When you set or modify an event breakpoint you can select multiple actions in multiple categories. You set only one event breakpoint in your application and all actions that trigger the breakpoint are grouped into the single event breakpoint. In the Breakpoints window you will see a single event breakpoint entry and a list of all the actions that trigger the breakpoint.

You can select the actions in the following panels.
