Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property of undefined
JavaScript TypeError is thrown when an operand or argument passed to a function is incompatible with the type expected by that operator or function. This error occurs in Chrome Browser when you read a property or call a method on an undefined object . There are a few variations of this error depending on the property you are trying to access. Sometimes instead of undefined it will say null.
