[Building Sakai] Debugging Javascript & Velocity

[Daniel Merino]

Hi, David.

I'm currently using Firebug 1.11.2 with Firefox 19.0.2, but console does 
not show errors when I click over the button, only lots of warnings that 
does not seem to be related with this issue.

Maybe is a velocity issue, but I don't know how to check this.

Thanks for your help.
Best regards.
