Javascript! :rock:
I too am a fan. I'd like to experiment with that sample site... but I have to move this weekend... I hate moving!

I don't know if this is what's being referred to, but you can get error messages by clicking Tools - Internet Options, going to the Advanced tab, and checking off "Display a notification about every script error."
When you load a page with a script error, you'll get a typically vague Microsoft error box that says something like "There may be problems with this web page..." - if you click on Show Details, you'll see the actual error. It's not great, but it will at least tell you about missed closing parentheses and stuff like that. Even when the error messages themselves are completely useless, they do give you the line and character number where the error was found.
You probably want to disable this option for everyday browsing, though, because otherwise you'll get errors on almost every page!
