Sir/Mam,
First of all, I am sorry for posting my javascript problem in Java section.I actually couldn't find where to post for javascript issues.So, I posted here.
I had downloaded paho mqtt javascript file.After downloading the file,when I tried to open the paho mqtt(javascript) folder,it was showing an alet box error

Line :116
Char: 3
Error: Expected identifier,string or number
Code: 800A0404
Source: Microsoft JScript compilation error


I had downloaded whole file from your official website and from github too,
but it's not opening in my pc.I am attaching one screenshot of the error.
Please help me fix this error.
Thank you.

Apparently, this is not an IDE problem, right?

Moving to paho to check if they can help.

Hi,
Javascript was not really equal to Microsoft JScript. And there was not the right way to run *.js as you description and screenshot.

More detail, please read nodejs.org. As that was the better way to play your javascript code on desktop. In simple way, you should download bbedit or vs-code. both  had virtual browser even terminal to test your javascript code.

Or you can download "play.js" or "Code" app to test your code on iPhone/iPad if you just want doing light-weight simple testing.

had fun~
