alert( Object.isString( "foo" )); // alerts "string" alert( Object.isString( new String( "foo" ) )); // alerts "object"
I know why this happens - because Prototype uses the underlying typeof's understanding of type. Personally I think this is a bug though - Javascript is just being difficult here and Prototype should make stuff like this easier. It should return "string" regardless of how the string was created. Anyone agree I should file this as a bug, or is there a good reason the current behaviour is desirable?
