Details

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060909 Firefox/1.5.0.7 Build Identifier: All This simple code: typeof /hello/; returns "function" instead of "object". I do not see anywhere in ECMA-262 a definition for [[Call]] for RegExp instances. Other browsers support this also, IE, Opera, Safari and Omniweb all result in "object". This is a serious problem and can throw off functions expecting either an object or a function. Reproducible: Always
