this sounds like:
$('some_element_id').appendChild( new Element(tagName, options) );

Hi guys,
I was looking through some of my old source code and noticed that I
added a modified Object.extend method.
Apparently the normal for-in loop used in the Object.extend guts
ignores methods named 'toString'.
I fixed this:

Yeah, toString is non-iterable in JS.
Then this opens up the whole can of worms of, well if we're adding explicit
support for this non-iterable property, why not others, and the list could
grow along with any resulting code.
If anything, I'd add support for passing an array of member names to check
for at extend-time (thus making it
Honestly, I don't care about the core dev teams inner soul searching
on what they want to do.
I just merely posted this to point out that the for-loop doesn't
iterate over the method 'toString'.
I am happy with my solution and if it's left up to the Devs to fix on
an 'as needed' basis I am

So you're proposing a wrapper around new Element(); appendChild()? It's
useful, yeah... But is build

Prototype:
It does not ignore based on name -- if you define a property named 'toString'
as a function (or some other object) it will be included in the for-in loop.
But the for-in loop ignores 'build-in' properties like 'toString' on Object
etc. and 'length' on Array.

@Tobias, I dont know if that is true.
This works:
foo = Object.extend({}, { toString:function(){ return 'BOO!' } })
foo.toString()
This doesn't:
Dummy = Class.create()
Object.extend(Dummy.prototype, { toString:function(){ return 'BOO!' } })
new
