A software debugging tool for assisting a programmer in locating errors in content or coding, etc. generated at the client, e.g., using scripts and/or dynamic HTML. Whereas current debugging tools, such as the "View Source" option of popular Web browsing software, permits the programmer to view only the hard-coded HTML coding as it is received from a Web server, the present invention permits the programmer to view the HTML coding and/or content generated at the client. This assists the programmer to locate errors in, or "debug", software, since it is frequently easier to detect errors in the results of an executed script than it is to detect errors in the script itself.

A technology to automatically generate a command line that has values for undefined variables in the script appended as arguments to the name of the script. This technology is intended for an unsophisticated user that is unlikely to remember or know the undefined variables within a script and/or the format and order that the values for the variables must be presented as arguments appended to the name of the script. The technology will determine the undefined variables within the script and prompt the user to supply values for the variables, then the technology will automatically generate the command line on behalf of the user and provide it to a corresponding scripting-language interpreter.
