Hi,
I was wrong... In 12.9 section in ECMAScript-262 spec can be read:
"An ECMAScript program is considered syntactically incorrect if it contains
a return statement that is not within a FunctionBody"
Ok... I'll try to find a workaround or to anlyze if we're abusing the use of
"return" in our application.
Cheers,
Iván
