I wanted to play with a big thing that builds on the JavaScript interpreter in the browser. I wrote a macro to generate the following table:
--- 1 2 3 4 5 1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
Notes: As I wrote this script, I got my first JS syntax error. That's gotta be the funkiest dialog I've ever seen!
Suggestion to the Netscape people -- instead of putting the error message in a new window, put it inside square braces in the displayed HTML text. Clearly label it as a JavaScript error. Allow developers to install a protocol handler that catches these errors so we can write them to a log file or whatever.
I couldn't figure out how to call the built-in random routine or any of the math routines. It's OK, I can't think of too many web pages that need to display the value of an arcssine! Yeah. I guess every language has to have these verbs.
