Function expected
Line 195; Capitolized comment for your convenience (its on the far right)
Supposedly the Function expected error occurs when a function hasn't been defined yet. This makes 0 sense because I'm calling a function that has been defined, and I'm not even running the script until the page has loaded.
Code:<html><head><title>Test Game</title><script language="JavaScript"> var fightData = new Array(); attacker_name = "Attacker"; defender_name = "Defender"; max_attacker_health = 100; max_defender_health = 100; fightData[0] = new Array(); fightData[0]["round"] = 5; fightData[0]["attacker"] = "attacker"; fightData[0]["defender"] = "defender"; fightData[0]["min_roll"] = "334"; fightData[0]["this_roll"] = "655"; fightData[0]["attack_type"] = "casting"; fightData[0]["attack_damage"] = 15; fightData[0]["defender_health"] = 85; fightData[1] = new Array(); fightData[1]["round"] = 8; fightData[1]["attacker"] = "attacker"; fightData[1]["defender"] = "defender"; fightData[1]["min_roll"] = "334"; fightData[1]["this_roll"] = "141"; fightData[1]["attack_type"] = "melee"; fightData[1]["attack_damage"] = -1; fightData[2] = new Array(); fightData[2]["round"] = 8; fightData[2]["attacker"] = "defender"; fightData[2]["defender"] = "attacker"; fightData[2]["min_roll"] = "334"; fightData[2]["this_roll"] = "832"; fightData[2]["attack_type"] = "melee"; fightData[2]["attack_damage"] = 22; fightData[2]["defender_health"] = 78; fightData[3] = new Array(); fightData[3]["round"] = 8; fightData[3]["attacker"] = "defender"; fightData[3]["defender"] = "attacker"; fightData[3]["min_roll"] = "334"; fightData[3]["this_roll"] = "508"; fightData[3]["attack_type"] = "casting"; fightData[3]["attack_damage"] = 32; fightData[3]["defender_health"] = 46; fightData[4] = new Array(); fightData[4]["round"] = 10; fightData[4]["attacker"] = "attacker"; fightData[4]["defender"] = "defender"; fightData[4]["min_roll"] = "334"; fightData[4]["this_roll"] = "963"; fightData[4]["attack_type"] = "casting"; fightData[4]["attack_damage"] = 18; fightData[4]["defender_health"] = 67; fightData[5] = new Array(); fightData[5]["round"] = 15; fightData[5]["attacker"] = "attacker"; fightData[5]["defender"] = "defender"; fightData[5]["min_roll"] = "334"; fightData[5]["this_roll"] = "765"; fightData[5]["attack_type"] = "casting"; fightData[5]["attack_damage"] = 20; fightData[5]["defender_health"] = 47; fightData[6] = new Array(); fightData[6]["round"] = 16; fightData[6]["attacker"] = "defender"; fightData[6]["defender"] = "attacker"; fightData[6]["min_roll"] = "334"; fightData[6]["this_roll"] = "816"; fightData[6]["attack_type"] = "melee"; fightData[6]["attack_damage"] = 31; fightData[6]["defender_health"] = 15; fightData[7] = new Array(); fightData[7]["round"] = 16; fightData[7]["attacker"] = "defender"; fightData[7]["defender"] = "attacker"; fightData[7]["min_roll"] = "334"; fightData[7]["this_roll"] = "566"; fightData[7]["attack_type"] = "casting"; fightData[7]["attack_damage"] = 24; fightData[7]["defender_health"] = 0; setTimeout("result_area.innerHTML += 'You lose.

Solved, function name was the same as a variable name. Didn't know you couldn't do that in JavaScript.
