Affects: IE5, IE5.5, IE6, IE7, IE8 Beta 1
MSIE Feedback ID: 333956
Description: The ability to prototype on any HTMLElement (doesn't matter which kind, e.g. HTMLFormInputElement, HTMLFormButton, etc. (see all element types)) is not possible in Internet Explorer. This frustrates many developers because being able to do so would allow them to workaround almost any other bug in IE.
Example: calling HTMLFormElement.prototype.preSubmit = function(){...} will not work, although it works in all other Modern Browsers.
Known Workarounds: None.
Related Issues: Any issue with missing or broken implementations for other elements in Internet Explorer.
