Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token } in jquery-1.9.1.min.js

Question

I get this error: First error: Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token } => jquery-1.9.1.min.js:3 Now the error says: Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token } =>fase1_manual.php?lic=1:15

But when i look where they say, I don't see any error...

On my page, the only jquery i use is:

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function () {
        $('#mydate').click(function() {
            $('#mydate').datebox('open');
        });
    });
</script>

And i use a jQuery Mobile datebox.

Can't seem to see what's wrong, makes my page freeze from time to time, when submitting my form. Thanks to anyone that can help!

Entire page:

<?php
session_start();
include("connections.php");

$nameErr = $fnameErr = $bdErr = "";
$name = $fname = $bday = "";
if (isset($_GET["submit"]) && !empty($_GET['submit'])) 
{
    if (empty($_GET["patname"])) {
        $nameErr = "Mag niet leeg zijn";
    }
    else {
        $name = cleanValue($_GET["patname"]);
        if(preg_match("/^[a-zA-Z -]+$/",$name))
        {
            $nameErr ="";
        }
        else 
        {
            $nameErr = "Moet enkel uit letters bestaan";
        }

Answer 1

I think it was a bug in jQuery Mobile, we decided to change everything to bootstrap, so only css-wise things changed, javascript/php/html stayed the same and the bug dissapeared.

Answer 2

Try running your javascript code in jslint http://www.jslint.com/ and you will find the catch.

If you still face the issue, try using google jquery from link https://developers.google.com/speed/libraries/devguide
to make sure that problem with jquery only.

If it works fine, then you need to reload jquery again, it may be the problem that jquery file was not downloaded correctly.
