In short, Web Workers enable web developers to run JavaScript code in the background which might help to increase web page performance. This post is going to explain what are inline Web Workers and how to create them. Inline Web Workers When dealing with Web Workers, most of the times you will create a separate JavaScript file for the worker to execute.

Quick Tip – JavaScript Namespaces Namespaces (or named scopes) are widely used in many programming languages. Namespaces help to group a set of identifiers into a logical group. An identifier can be a named class, named interface or any other language element that is contained inside the namespace. Since the same identifier can be used in more than one namespace but with a different meaning, using namespaces can help reduce name collisions. Creating a JavaScript Namespace JavaScript doesn’t include...

The async and defer Script Attributes in HTML5 One of the rules of thumb that you always hear regarding script elements is to put them very close to the </body> closing tag of the Web page. The main reason for that is that script elements are fetched and executed immediately when the browser encounter them. This default behavior includes blocking the browser’s rendering, loading a JavaScript file into memory, and executing its code immediately. In many circumstances, and in particular when...

Back to Basics – JavaScript onerror Event The JavaScript window.onerror event is a very useful event that I find very strange that sometimes client-side developers don’t know. The event is fired most of the times (yep not every time) an error occurs in a JavaScript code. You can wire a handler to the event that will help you to prevent errors from bubbling to the browser or to send the errors to some logger for further investigation. The onerror Event The window.onerror is an event handler for error...
