Question

When I try the following in the chrome console, i get ‘undefined’ as the value of ‘e’:

try{
    var test=somethingInvalid();
}
catch(e){
    console.log(e);
}

How do I access the details of e?

What properties does it have?

Thanks.

Doh. Doing console.log(‘E is: ‘+e) seams to work. Sorry!

Well, it will return undefined, because the last line console.log doesn’t return a value.

try{
    false = true;
}
catch(e){
    console.log(e);
}

but with the above you will also see an object > Reference Error followed by the next line of undefined
