Welcome

Html Debugger is a simple IE debug tool for Windows Phone.

Windows Phone Html Debugger In Action from Sergei Grebnov on Vimeo.

Background

Working very close with the numerous mobile web frameworks I see how often people (mostly developers) complain about the lack of the tool to debug html produced by a Windows Phone Browser. This also means that there is no way to share the page structure to get help or to just debug the page in more comfortable environment. I agree that most of the things could be debugged in IE9 desktop because IE9Mobile is very similar to IE desktop. But they are NOT EQUAL, and I saw many cases where they worked differently and I personally ran into IE9Mobile specific issues many times. So having such a tool will be a huge developer aid IMHO.

This project is my proof-of-concept ("prototype-level") implementation of such Windows Phone IE debug tool based on PhoneGap (now Cordova) framework and Weinre remote debugger.

Functionality

The tool provides VERY SIMPLE implementation of the key html debug functionality:

getting html layout source;
access to debug console output;
access to dom information.
