[Laszlo-user] parseInt() anomaly

[Cary Clark]

Anyone with an opinion on why

    <handler name="oninit">
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 01:[" + parseInt("01") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 02:[" + parseInt("02") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 03:[" + parseInt("03") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 04:[" + parseInt("04") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 05:[" + parseInt("05") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 06:[" + parseInt("06") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 07:[" + parseInt("07") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 08:[" + parseInt("08") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 09:[" + parseInt("09") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 10:[" + parseInt("10") + "]" ) ;
    </handler>

would show this in DHTML mode in both Firefox & IE:
testApp.lzx test 01:[1]
testApp.lzx test 02:[2]
testApp.lzx test 03:[3]
testApp.lzx test 04:[4]
testApp.lzx test 05:[5]
testApp.lzx test 06:[6]
testApp.lzx test 07:[7]
testApp.lzx test 08:[0]
testApp.lzx test 09:[0]
testApp.lzx test 10:[10]

and this in Flash:
testApp.lzx test 01:[1]
testApp.lzx test 02:[2]
testApp.lzx test 03:[3]
testApp.lzx test 04:[4]
testApp.lzx test 05:[5]
testApp.lzx test 06:[6]
testApp.lzx test 07:[7]
testApp.lzx test 08:[8]
testApp.lzx test 09:[9]
testApp.lzx test 10:[10]

Notice the values printed for 08 & 09 in each. 

I created this output using this code:
=================================================
<!DOCTYPE canvas SYSTEM "http://www.laszlosystems.com/lps/tools/lzx.dtd">

<canvas>
   
    <handler name="oninit">
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 01:[" + parseInt("01") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 02:[" + parseInt("02") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 03:[" + parseInt("03") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 04:[" + parseInt("04") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 05:[" + parseInt("05") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 06:[" + parseInt("06") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 07:[" + parseInt("07") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 08:[" + parseInt("08") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 09:[" + parseInt("09") + "]" ) ;
        Debug.write( "testApp.lzx test 10:[" + parseInt("10") + "]" ) ;
    </handler>

           
    <view>
        <text>Hello...</text>
    </view>
</canvas>

=================================================

I got onto this testing my real app which grabs the hours and minutes 
from a time string in the form of HH:MM, parseInt()'ing the values to 
int's and putting them into a Date object.  Doesn't seem to work so well 
in DHTML.  The Flash script engine got it right.
