Firebase update callback to detect error and sucssess

Question

How do I make this call back work? I have read the documents but I just cant figure it out for some reason?

   var ref = new Firebase(\"https://xxx.firebasei

Your second call to update() raises this error in the JavaScript console:

Uncaught Error: Firebase.update failed: First argument must be an object containing the children to replace.(…)

The first argument to update has to be an object, so:

blast.update({ update: "I'm writing data" }, function(error) {
  if (error) {
    alert("Data could not be saved." + error);
  } else {
    alert("Data saved successfully.");
  }
});

For reference, this is the documentation for the update() function.
