How to suppress all JavaScript runtime errors?


How can I suppress all JavaScript runtime error popups, from the programmers side?


Solution

  • To suppress all JavaScript errors there seems to be a window.onerror event.
    If it is replaced as early as possible(e.g. right after the head) by a function which returns true - there will be no error popups, which is quite useful after debugging is done.

    <head>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        window.onerror = function(message, url, lineNumber) {  
            // code to execute on an error  
            return true; // prevents browser error messages  
        };
    </script> 
    ...
    

    Error Logging is possible too, as explained here
