Based on the Scripting Redesign RFE for Internet explorer
A method invoked from Java to javascript using JSObject call must marshall
the parameters correctly and return the correct type when moving
between Java-JS and back from Js-Java.

Currently, this is what is observed when using the JSOBject call method

Passed argument Return type expected Actual Returntype
--------------------------------------------------------------
char char integer
byte byte integer
float float double
long long double
short short integer

NOTE: what method returns (see "Actual Returntype")


Netscape 6.x returns these values correctly.
