I think anything has run at all.
Is it as "easy" as Java, C#, etc.

I'm trying to debug javascript code just by adding a breakpoint in VS2008, but the debugger's not stopping. Do I have to do some special setup in order to enable javascript debugging? Or does the code have to be in a separate js file?
