Description Geoffrey Garen 2007-03-18 15:11:42 PDT 
Broken off from bug 13106.

A few key questions:
1. What counts as a number (leading/trailing junk, hexadecimal, non-integer, etc.)?
2. Should collection(argument) match collection[argument] or collection.item(argument), or should all three match?
3. Should collection.item() handle two arguments or only 1?
4. Should collection.item(argument) return null or undefined when argument is not found?

We need to write a test for question 3. I think the rest are covered.

Safari 15.5 on macOS 12.4 matches with other browsers (Firefox Nightly 104 and Chrome Canary 105) in the attached test cases. I think they were fixed along the way and this bug can be marked as "RESOLVED CONFIGURATION CHANGED". Thanks!

Oh yeah, we improved this area some time ago.
