Those seem to be discussion of ElementTraversal. I was pretty sure I'd raised the same issue with Selectors API, but the W3C list search is crappy enough that I can't find the posts... In fact, the only thread on the matter I can find is the "ACTION-87: Selectors API" thread (announcing that you plan to start working on the spec at) at <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapi/2006Feb/0108.html>. Was that it? In any case, the static implementation was considerably more complicated in Gecko, I suspect performance is a wash in most cases, though it's easy to create examples that are much faster with one or the other approach. -BorisReceived on Monday, 23 March 2009 14:31:57 GMT
