I cant rely on that ie debugger , cause when i view source, i see line 56 as a long line, and i dont know where the error really is? is there a way to trace the error? what does the error doesnt support.Here is line 56:

function send_email(to) {
    if (to.length == 0) {
        $("#email_loader").html("<p>Please enter an `email address</p>");
        $("#email_response").fadeIn(250);
    }
    else {
        _gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'Email', FA.appID]);
        $("#email_loader").html("<img src='http://apps.com/img/ajax_load.gif' />");
        $("#email_response").fadeIn(500);
        $.get("/inc_appdl_main_api.php", {
            to: to,
            app_id: FA.appID
        }, function (data) {
            if (data.length > 0) {
                $("#email_loader").html(data);
                $("#email_response").delay(1000).fadeOut(500);
            }
        });
        setTimeout(FA.iframeClose, 2000);
    }
};
function iframeClose() {
    parent.postMessage("closeFA", "*");
};
$("#to").keypress(function (event) {
    if ((event.which == '13') && ($(this).val().length > 0)) {
        to = $(this).val();
        event.preventDefault();
        send_email(to);
    }
});
$("#email").click(function () {
    to = $("#to").val();
    send_email(to);
});
function set_url_target(url) {

}

is there a way to debug in ie8?

I looked in notepad++. it points to there:
char 791
to=$(“#to”).attr(‘value’);send_email(to);

whats wrong with it

Answer 1

This worked for me:

IE threw an error because of the "to" variable. I changed this:

$("#email").click(function () {
    to = $("#to").val();
    send_email(to);
});

To this:

$("#email").click(function () {
   var to = $("#to").val();
    send_email(to);
});

IE stopped throwing the error!!
