suppose for example I wanted to emulate the

ensuring that if/when it encounters a browser that can handle the
datalist that it does not execute?
What about this attempt?

It's easier to just check for the interface.
if (window.HTMLDataListElement) {
// datalist is supported.
}
However, thanks to a bug in Opera 9, you have do this:
if (window.HTMLDataListElement || window.HTMLDatalistElement) {
// datalist is supported.
}
The first is what the spec defined, the second is what Opera initially
implemented, but it's being fixed.
