Just in general I’m getting some errors with this.
The major one is in safari and the android browser get the error

JavaScript reference error can’t find variable

The variable in question is b2AABB.

Here is the code var worldAABB = new b2AABB();
I am working with box2d JavaScript (the pixel lab variant) for google closure. Also if you can give my closure dependencies and requires a good once over I would appreciate it.

    I don’t know your closure/prototype environment, but since it looks like your JS files might be loading asynchronously, is it possible that all your JS files aren’t loaded yet before the dom:loaded event fires:

    document.observe("dom:loaded", function() {
        var worldAABB = new b2AABB();
    

    The error is occurring on the first line of this function which is pretty suspicious. Is there an event that fires when the JS files are all loaded?

    So, I think you need to figure out whether this is a timing issue of script loading or whether it’s a dependency problem and the desired scripts are never going to be loaded. You can do that by temporarily replacing the entire document.observe("dom:loaded", function() { with a new function that just tests for the existence of b2AABB after a long timeout:

    document.observe("dom:loaded", function() {
      setTimeout(function() {
        if (b2AABB) {
          alert("Found it");
        } else {
          alert("Still not there");
        }
      }, 60 * 1000);  // wait 60 seconds
    }
    

    If it’s still not present after 60 seconds, then it’s probably never going to be available and you probably have a dependency issue. If it is there after 60 seconds, then you probably have a timing issue.
