Laszlo's scripting language is ECMAScript (not a proprietary language, as you stated in your original post). The 'deviations' you note are bugs. Bugs don't make a proprietary language. AS2 is based on ECMAScript, but is a proprietary language because it is defined by Macromedia, not by the ECMAScript standard. Perhaps it is a subtle point. As I am sure you are aware, most of the 'deviations' from ECMAScript in Laszlo are due to using the Flash player as the (current) runtime target. (I'm not knocking the Flash player. It is an excellent piece of engineering.) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
