Is try...catch supported in server-side Javascript?

[Kris Rudin]

I'm trying to modify an existing ASP application, which uses JavaScript as
the server-side scripting language.

Can you use the "try...catch" blocks in server-side JavaScript?

Thanks!

I would presume so.

Wouldn't be much point if it didn't cos it wouldn't be able to call itself
JavaScript.

Shouldn't be too hard to try on a simple page - just do a divide by zero
error and catch that.

Yes, you can.

I use them round all my ADO calls to pick up things like duplicate key
errors etc. Works just fine.
