i don't think of building as a huge lump of code is the way to go.
start with a simple design and glue it together with a simple
set of tools. tools that do _one_ thing; keeps the code
smaller and when it breaks you know where to look and the
design can evolve.

The next real hard part is getting the layout (especially tables!)
sed | tbl | troff
you see the way i'm thinking?

You are confusing Java and Javascript.
They share 4 letters of their name and that's about all.

given i wrote a DLL (to my shame) once that talked SOCKS4
transparently and sat on top of winsock (ie. it looked like
winsock) i saw what socket calls netscape made. i was less than
impressed. i just had a look at the winsock code in mozilla.
yep, as i expected -- clueless bozos.
check this:
BOOL IsWinsockLoaded (int sp)
{
if (hWinsock == NULL)
{
WSADATA wsaData;
WSAStartup(0x0101, &wsaData);
}
// Quick macro to tell if the winsock has actually loaded for a particular
// function.
// Debug version is a little more strict to make sure you get the names
right.
#ifdef DEBUG
return hWinsock != NULL && spArray[(int)(sp)] != NULL;
#else // A little faster
return hWinsock != NULL;
#endif
}
this _abortion_ is called before _every_ winsock call.
duh... load it on startup and chuck away a swath of
redundant, inefficient code; bugs waiting to happen.
and THIS:
WSAStartup(0x0101, &wsaData);
a hard wired _constant_?
the prosecution rests.
i even saw a telnet that looped on write() after making an async
connect(). duh, select() anyone?

It should be in Mozilla source, I guess.
