Rails spinoffs - Sep 2005 - Javascript Logger and Console

Hey,
I put together a javascript logger and console that has made my coding
life a breeze, so I thought I would share it with you guys.

Check out the demo http://gleepglop.com/javascripts/logger/

Some features are...
- Toggle button so it is visiable when you need it and out of the way
when you don''t.
- Auto-positions itself at the bottom of the window so output is easy to read.
- Simple log methods { Logger.warn("message") or
Logger.debug("message") or puts("message")} removes need for
alerts
all over your code.
- Acts like a javascript console as well (as well as the ability to
cycle through old commands with up|down buttons)
- Inpsect function that allows you to easily view the internals of an object
- Works in Firefox 1.x, IE 6.x, and safari

Let me know if you get any use out of this.

Looks very nice... I played with it a little bit.  Good work!
