javascript bugs bug me.

I'm pretty sure "Web development" and "computer science" in the same sentence is an oxymoron[^]!

:laugh: It sure feels like it some days. Do web development for a while and you begin to long for the good old days when we did nothing but C and assembler programming. I once wrote a chess program for a 3270 using assembler. That was much more fun than trying to get web pages to layout correctly.

You can solve part of your problem by skipping CIO.com and zdnet.com altogether. You'll get more informed news at uncov.com and theonion.com.

Am I the only guy who wishes some of our fellow web coders would be a little more persistent about eliminating their javascript bugs on the popular websites. You know, the ones that pop up three or four popup dialogs per page refresh when you have debugging enabled in your browser? As a developer, I always have javascript debugging enabled in my browser. Surely I'm not the only one. Those silly little scripting error popups get irritating after a while - especially when you open several tabs at once like I always do when I read the Code Project Daily News articles. Now, I know most of these errors are from the ads and because I have my popup blocker turned on but - gee whiz kids - can't we get those guys to get rid of their js bugs? Speaking of javascript bugs, am I also the only one to have had Google rendered completely unusable because of javascript errors? I can't click a single link in the search results. MAC
I really think that they should come up with something universal, like an Uniscript or something. It would really increase the happiness among us. :wtf:

That's the reason I switched to Chrome. IE7- is just stupid in this regard.

Are you using Netscape 1.0 ?

:rolleyes: He's entirely right. I have debugging enabled in my development virtual machine in various browsers and there are almost no sites I go to with it that don't give javascript errors all over the place.

How is this an IE7 problem? If you're using FF with firebug and there is a js bug it's gonna pop a message and stop execution just like ie7 does. I haven't messed with chrome yet but I assume its script debugger (if it has one) will do the same thing. MAC

I too had a few days of google being unusable ( turns out keyboard worked but the mouseover caused most of the errors). They do have a fix in the google help. It was caused by a registry entry, rumored to have been set in a early version of a MS Windows Update relating to searching in IE. :omg: X|

The "window.external.tran" evaluates to null in a script debugger.
There's a check before it is accessed:
if( window.external && window.external.tran )
a += "&tran=" + window.external.tranSo it really shouldn't be throwing an error. FWIW, here's your code snippet pretty-printed:
if(window.google)
window.google.report=function(d,c)
{
var a="";
{
if(window.google.pt)
{
a += "&srt=" + window.google.pt;
delete window.google.pt
}
if( window.external && window.external.tran )
a += "&tran=" + window.external.tran
}{ var e= document.getElementById("csi"); if(e.value) return -
