There are lots of moz-isms in the DOM as well. The moz-isms aren't as easy to spot in the DOM since there's much less of a history of prefixing DOM-API names, but they certainly exist. And there are definitely cases when we'd like to deprecate APIs even if they aren't moz-isms. Two recent examples are showModalDialog and the XSLT API. / Jonas _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
