Hi all Dann (see below) had a query about the MimeType objects returned by NavigatorPlugins.mimeTypes. Does anyone here have any advice about dealing with those?

Here's that page I mentioned that has external links which now go to a domain squatter: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/NavigatorPlugins.mimeTypes In Chrome, at least, those mime type objects behave in a terribly strange fashion. I haven't found anyone who can describe it sensibly, but they seem to generate a new object on every access, which means if you're trying to walk the tree without going in a loop you'll have to write a special case for them, because there's no way to detect that you have seen it before. I'd love to get the straight dope from the horse's mouth though, so if you learn anything interesting about them please do pass it along! Thanks, Dann Toliver http://bentomiso.com http://bentobox.net http://daimio.org
