Often times a line 1 error indicates that there is a major syntax error in the script somewhere that is preventing it from parsing correctly. Ignore the line number and carefully check your whole js script. If you're really having issues try breaking it into several js files, that way you can see which is failing (a syntax error in a js script causes that entire script to be ignored).
