Worker class

The interface of the Web Workers API represents a background task that can be created via script, which can send messages back to its creator. Creating a worker is done by calling the Worker("path/to/worker/script") constructor. Workers may themselves spawn new workers, as long as those workers are hosted at the same origin as the parent page. (Note: nested workers are not yet implemented in WebKit). Not all interfaces and functions are available to scripts inside a . Workers may use XMLHttpRequest for network communication, but its responseXML and channel attributes are always null. (fetch is also available, with no such restrictions.)
