Summary isAncestorNode and isDescendantNode: Confusing function names

Reported 2009-06-29 08:59:51 PDT
function isAncestorNode(ancestor) It would seem that this function checks to see if "ancestor" is an ancestor of "this." However, it checks if "ancestor" is a descendant of "this." To clarify the meaning of the function, the function should be renamed to isAncestorNodeOf and the parameter should be renamed to potentialDescendant like this: function isAncestorNodeOf(potentialDescendant) Similar changes should be made to the isDescendantNode function: function isDescendantNodeOf(potentialAncestor)
