That is not a trick, but a usuall JavaScript idiom. You can simulate multiple inheritance as well, but then you need to copy all the Elements from the second parent to your derived "class". I think you should not try to only simulate classes with prototypes, but take your time to understand how prototypes work and what they bring to you. They can be used to simulate a class based approach as well, but they are not perfect at it. On the other hand they can bring you other features that you don't have with classed based object orientation. Christof
