It's absolutely not about how long it takes to download the JavaScript file. If that were the case we wouldn't use long, descriptive variable names. "Less code" is a side effect of the desire to stay DRY, and means fewer opportunities for something to go wrong. The end result is simpler, more expressive code that's easy to read and understand. -- sam --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype: Core" group.
