>>Should there be no function object for >>frob()? Or should it be there but throw upon calling? Or something else. There should be no function object in that case.

I see what you mean. Widget.hasFeature has slightly different > semantics (in widgets, it means "did that feature I requested load > and become available?" Which brings up the issue that it's unclear what it means for an API to have latent support but not having been activated with <feature>. If a widget UA has an implementation for window.frob() and frob() requires <feature> activation, what should happen when frob() hasn't been activated with <feature>? Should there be no function object for frob()? Or should it be there but throw upon calling? Or something else. Please specify this. -- Henri Sivonen [email protected] http://hsivonen.iki.fi/ ________________________________________ Access Systems Germany GmbH Essener Strasse 5 | D-46047 Oberhausen HRB 13548 Amtsgericht Duisburg Geschaeftsfuehrer: Michel Piquemal, Tomonori Watanabe, Yusuke Kanda www.access-company.com CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE This e-mail and any attachments hereto may contain information that is privileged or confidential, and is intended for use only by the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
