formatting javascript

[AffiliateDreamer]

Hi,
Trying to learn some advanced javascript, but the file i'm looking at is all jumbled up.

Is there a way I can format the code so its easier to read?

I'm assuming you mean automatically, right? Some editors allow you to add the tabs automatically however I cannot name any off the top of my head. If might also be what you are viewing the file in - what app are you using?

Oh, and is the source all over the place or is it just missing its whitespace?

I am using the firefox webdeveloper addon to get an idea of how others are doing fancy ajax work.

if the site has their javascript file compressed, it looks like:

var a=0;b=[];c=function d(){return false;]

You can the idea, so I want to basically paste the javascript in some editor, so it formats the javascript into a more readable state.

So make the above like:

var a = 0;
var b = [];
c = function() {
return false;
}

Is this possible or am I dreaming? hehe

Try Googling for javascript beautifier. There are online versions which do the trick nicely.
