That way it is more clear when a specification does not define what to do with a callback that throws. 102835 1 annevk 2014-03-24 16:40:27 +0000 Or we should have this as a lower-level hook and then a higher-level hook that is "invoke and report" as Ian just suggested on IRC. That higher-level hook should maybe be in HTML? 102836 2 ian 2014-03-24 16:50:11 +0000 Happy to add something that invokes a callback and then catches and reports exceptions. Assign this bug to me when "invoking callback functions" is ready, or file a new bug on me? 115502 3 annevk 2014-11-26 10:30:18 +0000 Note: bug 27046 added the "report the exception" algorithm which reports an exception to window.onerror. 126662 4 d 2016-06-02 20:49:16 +0000 A plan for the exception-handling behavior was discussed in https://github.com/heycam/webidl/pull/113#issuecomment-218640902 and is tracked at https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/958. The original request for a <dfn> was fixed in https://github.com/heycam/webidl/pull/113.
