Expected: 

self.postMessage = function (event) {
  if (event.data === "Hello") {
    var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
    xhr.open("GET", "myFile.txt", false);  // synchronous request
    xhr.send(null);
    self.postMessage(xhr.responseText);
  }
};

Found: 

self.onmessage = function (event) {
  if (event.data === "Hello") {
    var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
    xhr.open("GET", "myFile.txt", false);  // synchronous request
    xhr.send(null);
    self.postMessage(xhr.responseText);
  }
};

[Tooru Fujisawa [:arai]]

it should be "onmessage".
it's a callback function called when the worker receives a message.
