FAQ Topic - What is a host object?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
A host object is any object supplied by the host environment to
complete the execution environment of ECMAScript.
A host object is not part of the ECMAScript implementation, but is
exposed to the ECMAScript implementation.
A host object may be implemented as a native ECMAScript object, however
this is not required. For example, Internet Explorer, implements many
scriptable DOM objects as ActiveX Objects, often resulting in unexpected errors.
