Definition and Usage
The error() method was deprecated in jQuery version 1.8.
The error event occurs when an element encounters an error (if the element is not loaded correctly).
The error() method triggers the error event, or attaches a function to run when an error event occurs.
Tip: This method is a shortcut for bind('error', handler).
