Really? I was convinced that was how we got the King James Bible. :)

More than anything else I think the biggest problem with JavaScript is
that there just aren't great debuggers available. You can get better
debugging from the Mozilla browsers, but nothing is ever as nice as
the CF debugger. IE has the windows script debugger of course, which
is helpful on a rare occasion but is garbage much if not most of the
time.

Though by and large I rarely have any problems with JavaScript that I
can't debug on my own in a few seconds to a few minutes. I did have
one last week that had me cursing for a couple hours where IE was
erroneously not finding an html tag within another html tag when using
the DOM's getElementsByTagName() method. I still don't know what was
causing that -- thankfully I don't really need to because I had a good
permanent workaround.
