My problem is more of talking about undefined, which is an ECMAScript value, in the same context as null, which here (presumably) is being used to refer to the IDL value. There is no IDL value undefined. I would be happy if the start of that sentence were changed to: If the selectors parameter is set to null (or undefined, in the ECMAScript language binding), … Thanks, Cameron -- Cameron McCormack ≝ http://mcc.id.au/
