Can anybody point me to some asp debugging techniques or debugging tools.
Prefferably I want to jump from line to line with a function-button or something....

Inhumanoid, all I do is response.write in my ASP's which I write in notepad, no girly IDEs for real net programmers:).

If you don't fancy the sound of that try here for some excellent info from our friends at Microsoft. You must have Frontpage server extensions installed for a lot of this to work, if I recall correctly.

I know MadWorm, we all do....
I need to debug with girly IDEs cause a need to do a statement coverage for a testset. So I reckon it ca'nt be done (perfectly) unless I have a debugger.

A debugger seems a better option then response.write-ing every statement

In my opinion, there is nothing "girly" about being more productive. If the editor (Visual Interdev) can provide color coding, intellisense, statement completion and step by step debugging, it is only making my life easier and my coding time more efficient.

I can't be bothered with memorizing every parameter for every HTML, VBScript and Javascript tag/function, as well as for every COM object I use

I've worked with Visual Interdev, Frontpage & 3-4 other downloaded programs to write ASP pages. In my opinion, the best tool is the Microsoft Script Debugger tool.

Not as complicated as Interdev, it colours the code & points out the lines you have an error on when running. This is in between notepad & Interdev & you can download it from here (http://msdn.microsoft.com/scripting/default.htm?/scripting/) ;)
