In Prototype.js, pseudo-inheritance is implemented by copying
properties of one class to another. This isn't really inheritance like
you are thinking and there is no chain of classes for method lookup
when a call like foo.bar() is made.

If you want class-based inheritance like Ruby or Java then have a look
at this tutorial.

This is the single best JavaScript tutorial I have read. Yahoo! uses
this technique in their JavaScript library.
