Wes, I was referring to the _very_ first reply to this thread.

Math and Proxy. I think the legacy Java style guide influence addresses the question as best as I can hope for. These *did* come to us via Java (well, not Proxy), but they are hardly a matter of style; they are a matter of specification. Generally we name constructor functions with CapitalLeadingCamelCase and everything else with smallLeadingCamelCase. I think I picked this up from JavaScript: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition, by David Flanagan, about 4,000 years ago. As for other matters of style, I am a big proponent of brace-on-a-line in C-syntax languages, however this has proven to be a problem in practice with JavaScript due to the interaction between automatic semicolin insertion and object literal syntax in return statements: return{ Hello: "world" }; is not the same as return { Hello: "world" } Wes -- Wesley W.
