15.4. Using onError

Here are more constructs not available in PHP. Using either the onError event, or a combination of the try and catch keywords, you can catch JavaScript errors and deal with them yourself.

Events are actions that can be detected by JavaScript. Every element on a web page has certain events that can trigger JavaScript functions. For example, the onClick event of a button element can be set to call a function and make it run whenever a user clicks on the button.
