Code injection, error throwing

In a blog, Opera Software Developer Relations team member Tiffany B. Brown looks at code injection, error throwing and handling and mobile debugging. She notes Opera Dragonfly and its remote debug features provide a way to debug mobile sites from their desktop. Brown mentions WebKit’s recently added remote debugging capabilities, folded into Google Chrome developer tools. Pointed to as well are Bugaboo, an iOS app for Safari-based debugging; JS Console which is available on the Web or as an iOS app; and Weinre for WebKit-based browsers. In this entry, Brown looks more closely at Dragonfly remote debug and JSConsole.

 

 

Chrome Frame is out of Beta!

Big news: Chrome Frame is now stable and out of beta!

Today, we’re very happy to take the Beta tag off of Google Chrome Frame and promote it to the Stable channel. This stable channel release provides our most polished version of Google Chrome Frame to date, allowing users to access modern web technologies like HTML5 on legacy browsers. You now can download the stable version of Google Chrome Frame and users of the Beta will be automatically updated to it in the days ahead. If you’re an IT administrator, we’ve also posted an MSI installer for deploying Google Chrome Frame in your network.

Chrome Frame is now much faster and stable. It's extremely simple to have a site use Chrome Frame:

HTML:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="chrome=1">
 

For the next step the Chrome Frame team is focusing on making start-up speed even faster and removing the need for administrator rights when installing the plug-in.

Congrats to the Chrome Frame team!
