Comment:
Why isn&apos;t MessageEvent linked to a definition? It&apos;s not at all clear what this
object is. And the postMsg API has a MessageEvent, but that object doesn&apos;t
have the &quot;target&quot; property, which is used in the sample code below.

A lot more information about MessageEvent would be very helpful.

    <thetext>This is another spec-splitter bug.  The links do work in the WHATWG version:

http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/complete/workers.html#workers

But the script that splits it up to make the various W3C versions doesn&apos;t add inter-spec links.
