No wonder, since he knows quite > well that the standard says nothing about the type of a variable. Your inability to read in context (in addition to your ongoing anti-social behavior) is your problem alone. Variables have values; values are associated with a type. The ECMAScript Language Specification, too, is very clear about that, particularly in section 8 of the 5.1 Edition. And yes, I do know the Specification and its implementations quite well; eventually I wrote a bachelor's thesis about them. PointedEars -- When all you know is jQuery, every problem looks $(olvable).
