Description

If you use the Wikitext editor to edit a JS or CSS page on mobile, it throws the following Javascript error: "resp.parse.sections[0] is undefined"

Apparently our previewing code assumes that the API always returns sections for pages (which JS and CSS pages don't have).

Version: unspecified
Severity: major

Apparently this may be affecting regular pages as well.

Looks like there could be 2 separate bugs, as the preview on regular pages isn't throwing a JS error.
