Chrome:

  2. Click on the "Open console." icon in the bottom left corner.

Safari:

  1. Press CTRL + ALT + I to display the Web Inspector.

Note: this only works if the "Show Develop menu in menu bar" check box in the Advanced tab of the Preferences menu is checked!

IE9:

  1. Press F12 to open the developer tools.

  2. Open the Script tab, click the "Console" button on the right.
