One could just use a string value. Currently one needs to do filereader.error.name to check the error, filereader.error would be simpler. 60604 1 jonas 2011-11-29 09:05:14 +0000 The idea is to have a place to stick details about the error in the future. So FileReader.error.bytes could return the set of bytes which wasn't possible to decode using the selected text decoder. Or IDBRequest.error.index could return the name of the specific index whose 'unique' constraint was violated. These would of course be properties on subclasses of DOMError, and not added to DOMError directly. 60607 2 bugs 2011-11-29 09:20:39 +0000 Ok, that makes sense.
