    In the screencast “How to Select Anything and Everything with jQuery”, why would you use “eval” over “RegExp”?

    return RegExp(‘/’ + meta[3] + ‘/’, ‘i’).test(…);

    With that error logging, is there a way to log the errors without displaying them to the user?

    • Arvii

      I’m curious too. Is there?

    • http://tutorial-city.net/ Tutorial City

      You can display custom friendly errors to users and log the details of the true error, but you must create a really robust error checking, probably a class to manage this would be be a nice start.
