iHD uses ECMA script (compact profile) although technically these two languages are both extensions of the ECMA-262 standard. HD DVD uses its own subset of the ECMAScript 3rd Edition Compact Profile (ES-CP). Reference:MSDN
ECMAScript is often referred to as JScript or JavaScript,
It's from 2001 though. Is that correct?
Thanks.
Jumpstart". This would give you more insight into this issue and would also answer your earlier query " How to play sample?".
Thanks.

I came back to this thread to find this link and realized I had posted the wrong one. The correct link is: http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/files/ECMA-ST/Ecma-262.pdf
262 is ECMAScript Edition 3
327 is the Compact Profile, which basically restricts the use of with, eval, and the Function constructor
iHD uses 327 with the additional constraints that:
* You must use semicolons (ie, no automatic semicolon insertion)
* The "optional" parts in the Annex of 262 (like octal literals and string.substr) are not implemeneted
