Of course anybody would clearly understand "javascript" as well but PointedEars insists teaching people the proper use of names and precise logic as he seems to be a big fan of Vulcan philosophy and logic. Cite from : "Learn to think clearly. Learn to distinguish: what is, and what seems to be." -- Surak BTW: "Surak" is a fictional Vulcan philosopher in Star Trek. I would prefer Kant and his intepretation of "sapere aude" - but maybe this is not fancy enough for some people ;-) -- Arno Welzel http://arnowelzel.de http://de-rec-fahrrad.de
