4536,jQuery.isFunction fix for built-in IE functions,leidegre,,"I found some background information on the typeof built-in DOM function problem in IE, and there's a plausible workaround for this.

The typeof these functions is ""object"", but the toString representation for IE is ""\nfunction..."" which a simple regular expression could catch. e.g.

{{{
// where this.context == <form/>
alert(^function/m.test(""""+this.context.reset)); // true!
}}}

The multiline flag is necessary becuase IE adds a new line just before the ""function"" keyword.

If the typeof is not ""object"", then the above does not apply, so, any malformed string can not evaluate as a ""function"". But an object, where the toString function returns a string that starts with ""function"" would. Maybe there's a workaround for that to, but this slight modification of the jQuery.isFunction function does make it a lot more useful (compatibility wise).",enhancement,closed,trivial,1.3.2,core,1.3.2,wontfix,Utilities/jQuery.isFunction,,,
