Consider e.g. `01234567` (i.e. `342391`) vs. > `01234568` (which must equal `1234568` for compatibility with existing code).
This would solve the problem mentioned in the first message. `new Date(2013,08,12);` and `new Date(2013,07,12);` are harmless, since they always mean the same thing (even though first one is decimal and second one is octal). `01234567` should still be deprecated and replaced with `0o1234567`, but I don't think it comes up as often as those single-digit ones. _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
