    Took me 10 minutes to find the error: onProceed: funtion() { And of course, the only error I get is Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token { So of course I wonder, where did I have a mismatched curly brace??? Wrong wonderment. X| Marc

      Of course that is not really Javascript's problem. I see plenty of stupid errors in Visual Studio. Sometimes when you have a mistake that means that a project does not compile there are a ton of others. Then there was the time that I had a WPF UserControl and the code behind did not see the names in the XAML. I would love to blame Javascript for this problem since I am not fond of the language for a number or reasons, but in this case I cannot.

          9 out of 10 hates JavaScript. But if you have the right tools (debugging/diagnostics) then you should be fine :) PS: I also hate JS. Thanks to TypeScript for making my life less stressed! :laugh:

                                I can only imagine the thousands of warning and errors produced by this project, which is built around Django and Backbone.

                                        10 minutes is fast to find that. I'm serious. I've had a single missing comma cost me over an hour. Painful.
