Since I withdrew the suggested name 'apply3', how many arguments it (or Function.prototype.apply) is considered to take is no longer interesting or important. Presumably there is no dispute that the static version's first argument is required, and that its second and third arguments are optional. -- David-Sarah Hopwood _______________________________________________ Es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
