Yea, it's very much an extreme case just to point out that there is a point to know there. I do love how it points out that IE, even in IE9 needs to die a JS driven fire. The new JS engine IronMonkey in FF should help this going forward as it gains some JIT ability and the logic to inline the variable lookup after it sees it a few times. https://wiki.mozilla.org/Platform/Features/IonMonkey -- Rick Harding Launchpad Developer https://launchpad.net/~rharding @mitechie _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : launchpad-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
