Javascript try-catch无法捕获“无法加载资源：net :: ERR_CONNECTION_RESET”

Question

I have a multiple file uploader but while it's uploading sometimes 1 out of 10 files doesn't make it and it returns a Failed to load resource: net::ERR_CONNECTION_RESET in chrome console. I tried to catch it with the try-catch, but it acts as if no error occurred. What am I doing wrong?

var ajax = new XMLHttpRequest();
ajax.open("POST", "/multiFileUploadHandler.php");
try {
    ajax.send(formdata);
} catch (err) {
    alert('Error: '+err);
}

Answer 1

This is likely because it is async. Try catching this with an onerror event handler.

ajax.onerror = function(error) {
    // handle error
};

edit: corrected syntax.
