ESPECIALLY when there’s no documentation and you get an alert saying [Object] or whatever.

function deconstruct(what){
    obj = eval(what);
    var temp = "";
    for (x in obj)
            temp += x + ": " + obj[x] + "\n";
    alert (temp);
}

I wish I remember the source for this because it has to be one of the handiest functions ever.
