There is no issue with for-in loops in mac from what I've experienced.
Neither in Opera. It's a integral JS language feature and those tend to be aprox. 99%
cross-browser.
And I've built a superclass that relies HEAVILY on for-in loops.
Where there might be an issue, is if you mix an accossiativ array with a numeric one,
i.e.
a regular for loop will only loop through the numeric part, and a for-in loop will
loop through both.
So if you want to use strictly associative arrays, remove the possibility for numeric
declaration and indexing, e.g. make the array an object (object) instead.
