As most production environments we have setup something to send us a notification if there is an error in our web application. The problem is ofcourse that this only covers errors on the server side.
My question to the community is: What are you doing about client side errors, especially in javascript?
And what about other quality of service issues, such as slow processing and other things that might be due to the client machine?
You can handle client side JavaScript errors with window.onerror event
Inside the handler make an Ajax request to your server side error miner and log the error.

Hovewer window.onerror is not supported in all browsers, jQuery can fill up the gap with its own event handler: a combination of window.onerror and jQuery(window).error should suffice
