This is pretty tortuous. At the very least a few commas, to clarify the parsing, would be helpful. If I understand the grammar correctly (and I am not convinced that I do), I think this could be simplified as "When the constructor is evoked, a Window pointer must be stored on the newly created object. This is a pointer to the Window object within whose scope the constructor was invoked. (That's still kind of involved and unpleasant, but closer to something that is parseable.) cheers Chaals -- Charles McCathieNevile, Opera Software: Standards Group hablo español - je parle français - jeg lærer norsk chaals@opera.com Try Opera 9.1 http://opera.com
