What's a maximum call stack size exceeded error and how to fix it?
Question
I was trying to make a list where the user can add his or her favorites. But then I got a "maximum call stack size exceeded" error.
What is that and how do I fix it?
I'd appreciate the help, thank youuu
Here are the codes that I used:
<body onload="onload();">
<!--for everything in the navigation part including the add favorite bar-->
<div class="topnav">
<!--links to the other pages-->
<a class="active" href="home.html">Home</a>
<a href="games.html">Games</a>
<a href="movies.html">Movies</a>
<a href="series.html">TV Series</a>
<a href="books.html">Books</a>
<!--for the add favorite button-->
<div class="addFave">
<!--the text bar-->
<input type="text" name="enter" class="enter" value="" id="added" placeholder= "Add Favorites"/>
<!--the enter button-->
<input type="button" value="Enter" id = "addIt" OnClick="adding()" />
<!--for the script of the add favorite bar to add its functions-->
<script type="text/javascript">
var faves = [];
var y = document.getElementById("added");
function adding() {
faves.push(y.value);
document.getElementById("faveLists").innerHTML = faves;
}
var input = document.getElementById("added");
input.addEventListener("keyup", function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
if (event.keyCode === 13) {
document.getElementById("addIt").click();
}
});
</script>
</div>
</div>
<!--for the additional texts-->
<div class="list">
<!--where the user input in the add favorite bar will appear-->
<p id = "faveLists"></p>
</div>
</body>
</html>

So you have come to StackOverflow to ask what a stack overflow is?
Distilling it down to just the onload it is still happening. Onload is calling itself in an unending recursive loop causing a stack overflow.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> </head> <body onload="onload();"> </body> </html>
But adding an onload function fixes it.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <script> function onload() { console.log('Onload called'); } </script> </head> <body onload="onload();"> </body> </html>

The Maximum call stack size exceeded. appears when you enter something like an infinite loop of function!
Check a better example here
In your <body> you are typing: onload="onload();" and that's the reason of your problem because onload is calling itself, over and over. Try to remove it from your code, and the error will be disappeared.
