*phew* Just successfully removed few small smelly dirty nasty bugs in JavaScript form validation code~ Yeah! yeah! :D

How small are they? Well, as small as one character(e.g: ), })… Spend few hours to testing line by line just to discover that I type one character less here and there… :?

How careless I am! Blame to not enough sleep!

The bug in JavaScript caused the script doesn’t run without any error message or signal… Only after I caught all the bugs then I realised that I forget to enable script debugging feature in my browser!

How stupid I am! Blame to not enough sleep!

Debugging is nightmare to every programmer. Often debugging process cost more time and brain power to debug than to code. If you ask me, I rather write code for you and not help you on debugging. :P

Reminder to myself:

  • get enough sleep before coding
  • remember to enable script debugging feature in browser
