Question

What is the default value of the property overrideConsole?

(a) 1

(b) true

(c) 0

(d) false

The question was asked in my homework.

My doubt stems from JavaScript with FireBug topic in section Performance Measures in JavaScript of JavaScript

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

(d) false

Explanation: The overrideConsole property in the Firebug extension for JavaScript debugging allows you to control whether Firebug overrides the default console object methods (such as console.log, console.error, etc.) to log output into the Firebug console. The default value of overrideConsole is false, which means Firebug does not override the console object by default.

If you set overrideConsole to true, Firebug will override the console object, and any calls to console methods will be handled by Firebug's debugging environment.
