Description
I've noticed 2 issues while going through the "Debugging in the browser" chapter.
1. The "hello.js" file on this [example page](https://javascript.info/article/debugging-chrome/debugging/index.html) has the 2 functions written in just 1 line and so it's not possible to add a breakpoint at places within the function as instructed in the chapter.
2. Also, there's no "enable/disable automatic pause in case of an error." button on either chrome or edge as said in the chapter.

Research direction
Open the “Debugging in the browser” chapter and its linked example page, then inspect the hello.js example and the instructions about automatic pausing on errors. Update the example so the functions can be debugged at separate lines, and ensure the browser instructions match the current Chrome and Edge controls.
