다음의 링크들은 당신의 JavaScript 코드가 정상적으로 작동할 수 있게 고쳐야되는 흔한 문제들의 해결책을 제시한다.

초보자들의 흔한 실수들

스펠링과 대소문자를 제대로 해라

코드가 작동하지 않거나 브라우저가 무언가가 undefined라고 불평하면 모든 변수 이름, 함수 이름 등을 정확하게 입력했는지 확인하십시오.

문제를 일으키는 몇 가지 일반적인 내장 브라우저 함수는 다음과 같습니다.

세미콜론의 위치

세미콜론의 위치가 잘못 되지 않았는지 확인하세요. 예를들어:

함수

함수와 관련하여 실수할 수 있는 것들이 많이 있습니다.

가장 흔한 실수는 함수를 선언하고 어디서도 호출하지 않는 것입니다. 예를 들어:

function myFunction() {  alert("This is my function.");}

위 코드는 호출하지 않는 이상 아무것도 하지 않습니다.

myFunction();

함수 스코프

함수는 각자의 스코프가 있음을 명심하세요 — 변수를 전역으로 선언하거나 함수에서값을 리턴하지 않는한 함수 밖에서 함수 내부에 설정된 변수 값에 접근 할 수 없습니다. (즉, 어떠한 함수 내에서도 접근 안됨)

리턴 문 이후 코드 실행

함수 밖으로 값을 리턴할 때, JavaScript 인터프리터가 함수를 완전히 빠져나감을 명심하세요. — 리턴 문 이후에 선언된 코드는 절대로 실행되지 않습니다.

사실, 몇몇 브라우저들은 (Firefox 처럼) 리턴 문 이후에 코드가 있다면 개발자 콘솔에 에러 메세지를 줍니다. Firefox는 "unreachable code after return statement" 라고 알려줍니다.

오브젝트 표기 vs 일반적 할당

보통 자바스크립테어서 무언가를 할당하려고 할때, 단일 등호 기호를 사용합니다. 예:

const myNumber = 0;

하지만, 이 방법은오브젝트에선 동작하지 않습니다. — 오브젝트에선 멤버와 값 사이를 콜론으로 구분하고, 각 멤버들은 콤마로 구분합니다, 예를 들어:

const myObject = {  name: "Chris",  age: 38,};
