This is a public newsgroup, not private e-mail.
FAQ 4.39 does exactly what I am fighting against: it assures that array
and hash (associative array) are the nearly the same entities, so you
just need to pay some extra attention to the syntacs. What I want to
put in is the truth that these are two very different entities you have
to deal very differently.
If so, you did that in a very poor way. Make it better next time.
Also pls do not look at this as an attack onto JavaScript.
I doubt it was. Sorry, but the reply simply showed in detail your ongoing
cluelessness on the group's main topic.
It was a BASIC of Internet,
Pardon? You want to read e.g. RFCs 1 to 100.
so from the beginning it needed to express the most complicated things
in the most simple way. It is not its fault that some of its advantages
became limitations 10-15 years later.
First, JavaScript 1.0 is dated March 1996 as it was introduced with Netscape
Navigator 2.0 (JScript, and consequently ECMAScript emerged later); not
even 10 years have passed since then. Second, the features described do
NOT present limitations at all nor are they in any way simple (as already
shown). You really want to stop posting such FUD garbage here (unless you
are have now deliberately chosen to make a complete fool out of yourself).
Only because you are not able to handle it, it is by far not a Bad Thing,
especially when one takes the low level of expertise into account that you
presented here so far.
