choose the Advanced tab from the tab bar.
Contained here are tens of different options
you can manipulate in Internet Explorer. We simply want to turn on debugging for our scripts, so
find the Browser section. If you are using Internet Explorer for Windows XP then the
option Disable Script Debugging (Internet Explorer) should be the fourth item down
in the Browser section.

you have now enabled scrip debugging. When you are executing your scripts and they
are not functioning properly you can now use the debugger with the menu
