By specifying error handlers as part of initial Silverlight plug-in instantiation code, you can introduce custom error handling even for runtime errors, including suppressing error dialog boxes. For details, see Silverlight Application Scripting Error Handling.

Examples

The following JavaScript example shows the portion of an event handler that displays error information specific to runtime errors.

JavaScript 
    // errorArgs is an instance of RuntimeErrorEventArgs
    if(errorArgs.ErrorType == "RuntimeError")
    {
      var runtimeErrorMsg = "Silverlight Runtime Error  \n\n";
            
      // Basic error event informaiton.
      runtimeErrorMsg += "Error Type:    " + errorArgs.errorType     + "\n";
      runtimeErrorMsg += "Error Message: " + errorArgs.errorMessage  + "\n";
      runtimeErrorMsg += "Error Code:    " + errorArgs.errorCode  + "\n";
            
      // Runtime specific error event information.
      if (errorArgs.lineNumber != 0)
      {
        runtimeErrorMsg += "Line:     " + errorArgs.lineNumber     + "\n";
        runtimeErrorMsg += "Position: " +  errorArgs.charPosition  + "\n";
      }
     
     runtimeErrorMsg += "MethodName: " + errorArgs.methodName     + "\n";
            
     alert(runtimeErrorMsg);
    }
