Exception logging in JavaScript, capture stack trace

Question

I used https://github.com/eriwen/javascript-stacktrace to capture stack trace when exception happens.

In some cases the logged information looks very strange, for example the user uses IE9 and the logged message is at {anonymous}()
 at printStackTrace()
 at {anonymous}(#object,"error","")
 at {anonymous}(#object,[#object...""])
 at d(12031,"",#object,"")
 at {anonymous}().

In my code I have quite some jQuery event handling code

$(document).ready(function () {
    $('#reset').bind('click', reset);
}

function reset(e){
    $.ajax({
        type: 'POST',
        url: '/my/url',
        dataType: "json",
        success: function (result) {
            // do something useful
        },
        error: function (request, error) {
            // log to server side.
            logError(error, printStackTrace());
        }
    });
}

I think in this case the captured stack trace just look like anonymous objects.

Is there a better way I can capture stack trace in a more readable way?

I think I know the reason, according to http://kangax.github.com/nfe/ function expressions is the only way to get a truly robust stack inspection.

So in the coding, we have to consider how to create function in order to allow debugger to capture the name.
