Parametric Polymorphism (Generic Programming) not supported in Javascript?

I cannot f开发者_开发百科ind any information on Generic Programming in Javascript. So I assume it is not supported. Is it true? Is there anything that comes close?

JavaScript is dynamically duck typed. Generics don't make sense in that context. There aren't static types. It being supported or not is nonsensical.

Are you looking for something like:

var fn = function<T>(p1) {
    var elmt = document.getElementById(typeof(T).toString());
    [...]
}

I think that's is not supported by JavaScript/ECMA-262: ECMAScript specification.

You may want to take a look at this JavaScript generic type implementation.
