Question

I am wondering how to best handle javascript errors. My application is pretty javascript intensive and although I’m doing everything possible to test my code, I know that bugs will be inevitable.

Is there a way catch errors and reload the page when they occur? I know about try/catch but rather then adding a bunch of these, I was wondering if there’s a way to add something in document.ready that execute a page reload on error.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Answer 1

You’re looking for the window.onerror event.

Beware that if an error occurs on page load, you may end up recursing.
