Where is the javascript IDE? I know that you can use Eclipse, TextMate, Notepad and other such programs to edit javascript, and that more often then not said javascript is generated in the context of another language (php, ruby, java, or even .NET). I think that there could be huge potential for a Firefox addon that acted as an editor. Firebug is already most of the way there at 1.0. Could we join the missing link between Firebug and Notepad? /drool

    You might want to check out the aptana plugin for eclipse; firebug will be integrated with it soon.

    Use Komodo! It rocks on Windows and Linux and is halfway decent on OS X (but feels like a windows app ported to OS X). It is free and has dojo, prototype, and other js library code intelligence features built in.

    It also has Ruby, Python, Perl, and Javascript debugging built-in to the $250 version, too!
