<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
when something goes wrong with my javascript/jquery &nbsp;I usually get something like &nbsp;&quot;TypeError: undefined is not a function&quot; or some other generic error message. &nbsp;&quot;something went wrong&quot;.<br />
<br />
I can normally debug these issues pretty quickly though sometime it takes a bit of time as sometimes no idea of where or what exactly the error/issue is.<br />
<br />
The error information I get usually points to a line say the &nbsp;Jquery file when the issue is most certainly in my code. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Long question short is there a way of getting more description error messages or at least pointing me in a better direction .

TypeError: undefined is not a function

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.

jQuery (Core) is a cross-browser JavaScript library that provides abstractions for common client-side tasks such as Document Object Model (DOM) traversal, DOM manipulation, event handling, animation and Ajax. jQuery also provides a platform to create plugins that extend jQuery's capabilities beyond those already provided by the library.
