[Javascript] Write to Firefox's javascript console

[mdougherty at pbp.com (Mike Dougherty)]

I usually add a div to the bottom/top of the page somewhere, then do this:

document.getElementById("dbg").innerHTML += debuggingTestValue ;

Of course innerHTML is bad, yadda yadda - but for debugging it's really simple and provides an 
on-page trail of where your code execution goes.

html:
<div id='dbg'></div>
