I have this segment of code:
function setupWebGL() {
gl.clearColor(0.1, 0.5, 0.1, 1.0);
gl.clear(gl.COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
gl.viewport(0,0,400,300);
mat4.perspective(45, 400 / 300, 0.1, 100.0, pMatrix);
mat4.identity(mvMatrix);
mat4.translate(mvMatrix, [0, 0, -2.0]);
}
And everything in the code runs except the very last line
mat4.translate(mvMatrix, [0, 0, -2.0]);
I know this because I put alert functions after every line until they failed to run (I need a better way of debugging in chrome, any suggestions?)
I'm using the gl-Matrix library found here https://github.com/toji/gl-matrix/blob/master/dist/gl-matrix-min.js
Any ideas on why that line is stopping the code execution?
Here is the full code:

Use the new API:
mat4.translate(mvMatrix, [0, 0, -2.0]);
var translation = vec3.create();
vec3.set (translation, 0, 0, -2.0);
mat4.translate (mvMatrix, mvMatrix, translation);
You have a typo:
unifromMatrix4fv should be uniformMatrix4fv in function setMatrixUniforms.
I'm not sure if this fixes your problem or not, or why you thought your problem was with mat4.translate. You can always open the JavaScript console (F12 if you're running Chrome in Windows) and it'll tell you what the error is.
