Seems to me that is Microsoft's *JScript* reference.
or, is there some other downloadable complete javascript ref for
offline reading?
Dunno about complete, but you can try here for downloadable JavaScript
references:
<URL:http://devedge-temp.mozilla.or g/central/javascript/index_en.html>
Links to the ECMAScript Language specification (ECMA-262 Edition 3) in
PDF and Word formats:
<URL:http://www.mozilla.org/js/language/>
You can also poke around Sun (who now own 'JavaScript'), but likely
everything you need is above.

Worth noting that reference is for v1.3, the latest is v1.5.

True... but it's quite good and applicable nonetheless.
They are VERY clear about which aspects of the language are standardized and
which are not - and link to the appropriate standards.
Really one of the best online documentation systems out there.

In my experience those that author something are nearly always the worst
people to document it... they assume too much. ;^)
In any case while this documentatin is good its nowhere near as capable as
the MS Library documentation (have you looked at it - it's quite
impressive).
However the documentation you've linked is much more task based which may be
prefered by some people. While the MS documentation is heavily littered
with examples it's strictly a language reference - it does little to help a
novice find the tools needed to perform a task unless they already have a
concept of the objects/features they'd need.

I still like David Flanagan's book "JavaScript the Definitive Guide" by
O'Reilly. The book is so very well-worth having in hard copy.
The book is available in an online form via the (paid) O'Reilly "Safari"
service. It's a pain, but you should be able to join, grab the book then
unsubscribe. ;^)
But if you can convince somebody else (your office for example) to pay for
Safari it's really quite a nice service... although it could be much better
(I really think that I should get online versions of my hardcopy books for
free... but I understand the logistics of that are difficult).

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
