Troubleshooting Mac Extension Javascript errors

[codeaholic]

I am trying to move a Dreamweaver extension that works without issue on Windows
to the Mac platform. We are getting a very 'vague' Javascript error:
While executing onLoad in myprogram.htm, a JavaScript error occurred.

Any ideas on how to effectively troubleshoot such an error. There is no hint
to the syntax of the error causing the problem, the approximate specific error,
or even the line # of the offending error. I found this Tech note....but its
not much more helpful.

Anybody tried moving extensions from Windows to Mac before who might have some
hints?

Thanks.

codeaholic,

Start by performing step #4 from the TechNote to make sure it's a real
code error.

After that, start putting alert() statements in your onLoad() function
to narrow the error down to a particular line.

HTH,
Randy
