National characters in .js code

Just a hint to save you some time...
If you comment the code in your native language, be sure the file is UTF-8, otherwise runJs function will die without generating any exception at all. At least it failed for polish and cp1250.
This really sux... I've lost quite some time before I realized that the comments are to blame for the fault.

See? Comments in code are evil. At best it leads to people tinkering with or *shudder* understanding what you did, at worst, well, stuff dies on you.
