One thing I found out about JavaScript is, if you write recursive methods,
you have to declare local variables using var. Otherwise, the local
variables are static, which produces some very confusing results.

Guys
One of the things I like about the PHP/Javascript combo is the
similarity of syntax (and things like not declaring vars) so i can
switch easily, I must be getting old because it takes me a while (and
several coffees to switch between php/js and delphi)
One thing I found out (totally by accident) is that MS SQL TransactSQL
ignores ";"

Just about every time I switch to using Eclipse I try to do a selection
drag and drop - and then groan as I remember it doesn't support text
drag and drop. Even worse, I use Coderush in Delphi6 and really miss the
flexibility it gives you - like dropping markers that you can
immediately jump back to with Esc - hell, I'd even settle for being able
to drop bookmarks that you can jump back to with Ctrl+#.
With Javascript, apart from the := assignment mistake, the other one I'm
always doing is forgetting to put brackets around the boolean test for
if..then and while loops.

How do people find the whole thing of working with Delphi and then
several other languages in the same day?
Do you ever ocassionally go to do an assignment in clientside
JavaScript as
something := somethingElse;
Or if (this = that) {whatever;}
And end up staring at the error report unable to see what could be
wrong?
