16     <h3>I'm trying to load my code with the URL
17     <code>file:///C:/foo/bar/jscoverage.html?foo/bar.html</code>
18     and I'm getting all kinds of JavaScript errors.</h3>
19    
20     <p>
21     Internet Explorer 6 seems to have problems with a <code>file:</code> URL
22     that has a query string with a slash in it.
23     </p>
24     <p>
25     As a workaround:
26     </p>
27     <ul class="list">
28     <li>Place your files on a web server instead of loading them from the file system.
29     (<code>http:</code> URLs work fine.)
30     <li>Do not use a query string; enter your URL in the "URL" field in the "Browser" tab.
31     <li>Rearrange your directory structure so that <code>bar.html</code>
32     ends up in the same directory as <code>jscoverage.html</code>; then
33     you can use the URL
34     <code>file:///C:/foo/bar/jscoverage.html?bar.html</code>
35     with no slash in the query string.
36     <li>Use a different browser. (IE 7 seems to work.)
37     </ul>

39     <h3>JSCoverage changes my cursor to a busy cursor, and it never changes back!</h3>
40    
41     <p>
42     Certain browsers (<i>e. g</i>., Internet Explorer 6, Opera, Safari) have trouble changing
43     the cursor. Try moving the mouse and your cursor should change back to normal.

47 siliconforks 41 See <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit/browse_thread/thread/631908bd63241136/783c307480f95d8c">this discussion</a> for more information.

50     <h3>JSCoverage hangs sometimes when rendering the coverage report.</h3>
51    
52     <p>
53     With Internet Explorer 6 (I think I see a pattern here), garbage collection can cause performance problems.
54     (More information <a href="http://ajaxian.com/archives/garbage-collection-in-ie6">here</a>.)

57 siliconforks 41 <h3>Can JSCoverage be used with <a href="http://www.jsunit.net/">JsUnit</a>?</h3>
58    
59     <p>
60     It is necessary to run JSCoverage in <dfn>inverted mode</dfn>. You will have to
61     modify JsUnit to launch JSCoverage.
62     </p>
63    
64     <p>
65     See the directory <code>doc/example-jsunit</code> for an example. It
66     contains a copy of JsUnit version 2.2alpha11, with the file
67     <code>jsunit/app/main-data.html</code> slightly modified to add a button
68     which launches JSCoverage. It also contains a simple unit test file <code>test.html</code>. You
69     can instrument this example as follows:
70     </p>
71    
72     <pre>
73     jscoverage --no-instrument=jsunit doc/example-jsunit doc/instrumented-jsunit
74     </pre>
75    
76     <p>
77     You can then run the <code>test.html</code> file in JsUnit's <code>jsunit/testRunner.html</code>.
78     The simplest way to do this is probably to copy the contents of <code>doc/instrumented-jsunit</code>
79     to the root of a web server and then access the URL
80     </p>
81    
82     <pre>
83     http://127.0.0.1/jsunit/testRunner.html?testPage=http://127.0.0.1/test.html&amp;autorun=true
84     </pre>
85    
86     <p>
87     After the test suite has been run, click on the "Coverage report" button
88     to get a coverage report.
89     </p>
