Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Documentation Graveyard :: Web Developer, defect)

There are incomplete pieces of information at
http://www.mozilla.org/docs/dom/domref/dom_window_ref115.html#1021427 and
http://www.mozilla.org/docs/dom/domref/dom_window_ref114.html#1021410. There is
missing the other syntax of using these methods as mentioned at
http://devedge.netscape.com/library/manuals/2000/javascript/1.3/reference/window.html#1203758
and
http://devedge.netscape.com/library/manuals/2000/javascript/1.3/reference/window.html#1203669.
I'm meaning "setTimeout(function, msec[, arg1[, ..., argN]])" and similarly to
setInterval. Mozilla does understand this other syntax.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:



Expected Results:  
Compleate the documentation acording to JavaScript 1.3 reference.

Comment 1

[Nickolay_Ponomarev]

The reference is migrated to MDC and the setTimeout page is fixed:
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/DOM:window.setTimeout

Someone should fix the setInterval page too.

Nickolay updated the setInterval page, too.
