So, does anyone want to help get javascript working in Emacs &
XEmacs? I
was looking at the netscape javascript source, and it comes with a Perl ->
JavaScript glue layer that might be a good starting point. It allows
calling Perl from JavaScript and vice versa.
Increasingly, getting javascript'd web pages to even display correctly in
w3 is hellish. :(
And getting Javascript to work securely is equally hellish. Look at the
number of bugs both Netscape and Microsoft have had with their browswers.
Does anybody seriously think that they can Get It Right layering Javascript
on top of a general-purpose interpreter like Elisp?
Please, if you do this, I want a flag that *disables* Javascript, period,
end of discussion....
