PWB and javascript errors

[Robert Day]

Are people still having trouble suppressing javascript errrors when using 
PWB? This was the main problem we had with it that meant I could not use it 
as the basis for a major Public Internet Access project rollout we are now 
in the beginnings of. So many sites were just unusable due to the numbers of 
errors generated and the fact that PWB would not suppress those errors.
