Debugging Java Script

Hey, David:

I was playing around with JavaScript after reading your article, "Protecting HTML Page Elements with JavaScript and CSS." Using your code as a base, I changed one of my pages to do something similar and managed to key the function name incorrectly in the onchange attribute. I spent quite a while looking for the error and didn't find it until I went to advanced options in Internet Explorer and checked the Display a notification about every script error checkbox.

Make Qshell Clean Up After Itself

Hey, Ted:

I've written a Qshell script that creates some work files that are needed only for the duration of the script. I want the script to delete them before it ends. Here's the problem: There are several places where the script can end normally and plenty of places where execution of the script could end abnormally. In CL, I'd use a goto command to branch to an end-of-job routine, where I could put commands to clean up, but Qshell does not have a goto command.
