Just got this from Ajaxian.

IE has always had the crappiest set of JavaScript debugging tools forcing developers to try to troubleshoot issues via alert() or jumping to FireFox w/ Firebug to troubleshoot. Well, Jean-Fabrice Rabaute has a solution. He just released Companion.js, a debugging toolbar for IE!

Companion.JS (pronounced Companion dot JS or CJS) is a Javascript debugger for IE.

The current version is 0.2, adds the following features to IE :

• The toolbar :
  • Menu to customize the DebugBar and check updates.
  • Toggle the Development bar
  • Alert on javascript errors
  • Send page screenshot by email
  • Color picker
  • Resize IE window
  • Zoom page
  • View source code
  • View MSHTML integrated ActiveX source code
• The Development bar :
  • View HTML DOM Tree
  • View original ad interpreted source code
  • View tab attributes
  • Edit tab attributes
  • View HTTP and HTTPS headers
  • View page cookies
  • Validate html code for main page and frames/iframes
  • List all javascript functions
  • View javascript function code
  • Execute javascript code in the currently loaded page
  • Get information about currently loaded page

I'm definitely giving this toolbar a shot as anything that helps debugging in IE easier is worth a try.
