Using Firebug 1.2.1, an object with properties |length| and |splice|
is not formatted the same as an Array.
Example:
>>> ({splice:1, length:2, '0':0, '1':1, '2':2})
Object splice=1 length=2
>>> [0,1,2]
0,1,2
Please describe how an array is to be formatted so that a bug can be filed.
Thanks,
Garrett
