      Is there a tool, or Chrome extension I can use to load a page, identify the .js on the page, 'uncheck' selected .js and load the page again to check loading correctly?  Even better to be able to defer/move to the end of the file to test.

          thanks, that's quite handy but not what I need in this case.  This tool seems to switch off .js for the whole page.  I'm looking for something where I can cherry pick the .js on the page I want to block, or ideally move.

              Hey Mick,

              I use Firebug there is a version for Chrome, but it was originally built for Firefox.

              Full java-script debugging, breaking, conditional breaking, watching, step in, and profiling

              Chrome Version Here: https://getfirebug.com/releases/lite/chrome/

              Hope this helps,

              Don

                    Sorry for the delay.  I got sidetracked on another project and this client decided they would leave .js as is for the time being so I have not really tested. Initially I couldn't get the Chrome ext to do what I wanted and need to look at Firefox.
