I am writing a JavaScript section of code and making huge amounts of silly mistakes in the syntax. But the only way to find what line the error is on is to start commenting out the section of code I just wrote and reload it into the browser to narrow down where my missing ‘);’ is.
How do you "compile" a JavaScript source to make sure it is syntactically correct so that I can debug it in the browser?
Ctrl + Shift + J in firefox, if you don’t catch your mistakes until runtime. Of course firebug works better, but this is a quick way.
