Is this is regarding any script error

A:
Yes, it looks like you have a javascript syntax error. Check unclosed paranthesis and unclosed string literals in your client script blocks.

It may not be in the line 768. sometimes it throws errors near the line it warns. because your other paranthesises covers the expected one. check the possible methods you newly added.

Or click debug at the debug message, and select Visual studio in the list. it shows you the position of the error.

Click OK when it asks you if you want to debug. and in the list select Visual Studio. it will place the cursor to the line that produce error.

This might be helpful for javascript debugging in Internet Explorer.

A:
One of the common reasons for this could be the unescaped quotes inside the string parameter of javascript handler, such as:
onmouseover='myJavascriptFun("my so called "parameter"")'
For some reason IE unlike for example FF unescapes quotes before parsing javascript, so the code above becomes
onmouseover='myJavascriptFun("my so called "parameter"")'
so the ')' is expected after the second ".
The parameter, of course, comes from a data source so it should have been escaped using htmlentities or such method.
