Console.log () statements do not appear in Safari error log

I am debugging a Safari-specific javascript problem and cannot get console.logto output to the error log. This is a documented Safari feature (I am using version 4.0.3). However, these statements in my code are simply ignored. What for?

Thanks to Breton and SeanJA for their suggestions for testing directly in the console and creating the sample file. Having done this, I realized that console.log actually works in an isolated environment. This made me realize that this should be something special for my development environment. Checking, I found that JavaScript was loaded at an early stage, designed to define a console object for browsers that do not support Firebug.

if (!("console" in window) || !("firebug" in console))
 {
     var names = ["log", "debug", "info", "warn", "error", "assert", "dir", "dirxml",
     "group", "groupEnd", "time", "timeEnd", "count", "trace", "profile", "profileEnd"];

     window.console = {};
     for (var i = 0; i < names.length; ++i)
         window.console[names[i]] = function() {}
 }

This was written before Safari implemented a console object for its error window.

I deleted it and now everything is working fine. Thanks guys.
