This is a great tool for debugging javascript. My favorite part is the jQuery Selector inspector. I relied heavily on the old selector inspector "FirePath" and now that FirePath is dead, the jQuery Selector Inspector is my new essential tool.

Great plugin but you cant copy the event data you can only inspect it. Would be great to be able to copy the event data, or click and it goes to the js/event code.
