Valentin, it's common knowledge that the object tag is problematic, that's a browser issue though not a high priority for any framework to fix. That is why it's described as your 'pet' problem. You could have googled around to find this out yourself and that would have given you a number of fixes

Running this in my IE7 - the isnt even created. Its not a problem with it not being able to extend, its that getElementById('test') returns null, because IE doesnt actually create the in the DOM. As such I dont really think this is a prototype bug Tom --~--~-~--~~~--
