I would like to understand more about jQuery and I'm finding one thing I would like to do is to be able to find out what events are attached to elements. Is there some way using the debugger in IE or Firebug that I can find this out. I don't mean by looking at the source code. What I would like to do is to see events in the same way as I can check out CSS properties with firebug.

When you inspect the elements in FireBug, it shows you all of the events attached to the element.
simply execute jQuery('#elem_id').data('events'); in the firebug console, it will list all the events bound to the elements.
You can see it with Opera Dragonfly too, just inspect the element and go to properties tab on the inspect sidebar:
