Sometimes the debugger *does* update your Watch variables automatically and for some variables it doesn't ... I haven't figured out why there's this disparity though.

>>>I have developed a ASP.Net / VB.Net web application. In debugging a client-side javascript, I noticed that the variables and DOM node values do not refresh as I walk through using Trace. If I need to see the current values of the variables, I need to click on the refresh icon to the right of each line in the Watch window. This is counter intutive. The whole idea of the watch window is to see the current state of the expressions.
