Eduardo Schettino - 2007-08-02

hi,

  I am getting a warning (lint warning: undeclared identifier: e) when using Conditional catch clauses.
  I got this "try" block from mozilla dev (http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Core_JavaScript_1.5_Reference:Statements:try...catch).
  Is it a bug ? Or I am doing something wrong...

cheers,
  Eduardo
