2nd paragraph, after code sample |
The sentance
"This would make it possible to rewrite goog.string('foobar', 'foo') as 'foobar'.startsWith('foo')"
Should instead read:
"This would make it possible to rewrite goog.string.startsWith('foobar', 'foo') as 'foobar'.startsWith('foo')"

2nd paragraph |
The sentence "Although it uses goog.dom.classes.add and goog.dom.classes.remove, goog.dom.classes.enable does have a return value of its own." has a missing "not". It should read "Although it uses goog.dom.classes.add and goog.dom.classes.remove, goog.dom.classes.enable does *not* have a return value of its own."
Note from the Author or Editor:

2nd paragraph |
The second paragraph says "This id can be used later to abort the request via the manager's setAbort(id, opt_force) method, if desired." The referenced method is in fact "abort(id, opt_force)".
Note from the Author or Editor:
Agreed, thanks for the fix!
setAbort(id, opt_force)
should be changed to:
abort(id, opt_force) |

In the top paragraph, "displayInternal()" should be "decorateInternal()"

Table 9-1, 6th Event Type |
the 6th event, DELAYED_CHANGE does not work.
DELAYEDCHANGE is right.
perhaps, update for closure seemed to make a change to this event name from DELAYED_CHANGE to DELAYEDCHANGE.
Note from the Author or Editor:
Good catch -- apparently there are several issues with this table:
DELAYED_CHANGE should be DELAYEDCHANGE
BEFORE_CHANGE should be BEFORECHANGE
BEFORE_FOCUS should be BEFOREFOCUS
BEFORE_TAB should be BEFORETAB
SELECTION_CHANGE should be SELECTION_CHANGE
They need to be updated within the chapter in various places, as well. |

First line |
setModelMode should be setModalMode.
Note from the Author or Editor:
Correct, where it says:

should be changed to:
setModalMode/inModalMode

1st paragraph |
In Eclipse for a Mac, Command-Shift-T launches the "Open Type" dialog, not Option-Shift-T.
Note from the Author or Editor:
Correct, "Option-Shift-T on a Mac" should be "Command-Shift-T on a Mac". |
