[micjohnson]

Is there a way, so that we can hide or prevent the javascript script error that comes at the left hand side bottom of the status bar?

Appreciate ur help.

I think some (most?) browsers will accept this:

<script>
window.onerror = catchMe;

function catchMe()
{
 //do nothing
}
</script>

Of course, then you'll never know there's a problem, but I know from experience that it doesn't always matter.

'hope that helps.

You can also use the "try/catch" statements to catch specific errors, if you know which error you're looking for. I think the better way would be to not cause an error in the first place.

The technique that Dave posts above is currently employed by The Financial Times for when their code goes into production. It certainly does the job of making their Javascript code appear to run faultlessly.

Aaah the ostrich approach. Much like saying it's OK to commit crime as long as you don't get caught.

I'm with jemminger on this one. Find the bug and fix it - don't hide it and hope nobody will notice.
