What type of exception should be used in JavaScript?

Question

What type of object should be thrown in JavaScript?

I see many examples that throw a plain old stringand seem to be a semi-standard Error. Should I give preference to another?

Answer 1

Object Errorand specific error objects, such as TypeError, are fully standardized in the ECMAScript specification. However, in most browsers there are non-standard properties of these objects.
