I have proposed a merge with JavaScript, please see the talk page in JavaScript. Bamkin 19:02, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Reference to base2 project

I think it's useful to create a reference to the base2-project [1] in the section Incompatibilities, but since I'm a project member, I rather think someone else should change this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Doekman (talk • contribs) 10:25, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Js-hello world.png

Image:Js-hello world.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

MIME type

According to <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4329.txt>, the "new" MIME type for JavaScript is "application/javascript" and not "text/javascript". As I do not know if changing this works well with contemporary webbrowsers, I better leave it for someone more knowledged... 84.189.219.143 (talk) 00:22, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

I added something about the missing support for application/javascript in Internet Explorer. Maybe someone can rewrite that section to clarify it a bit.

Save-As

What is the rationale behind not allowing Client-Side JavaScript to invoke a 'Save-As' dialog? I can't imagine that the security would be any different than linking to a file, since both could contain identical information and could be called at the same time. This seems to be crippling - "you can make any app you want in JavaScript, so long as you never need to save a file." JavaScript could truly become the 'does everything' programming language if it had this one ability. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.192.2.92 (talk) 07:52, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
