Maximum call stack size exceeded error

Question

I am using a Direct Web Remoting (DWR) JavaScript library file and am getting an error only in Safari (desktop and iPad)

It says

Maximum call

Answer 1

There is a recursive loop somewhere in your code (i.e. a function that eventually calls itself again and again until the stack is full).

Other browsers either have bigger stacks (so you get a timeout instead) or they swallow the error for some reason (maybe a badly placed try-catch).

Use the debugger to check the call stack when the error happens.
