How can I check whether a year is a leap year?

jsWalter, Martin Honnen,

A leap year is
  divisible by 4 and (not divisible by 100 or divisible by 400)
So to check that use a JavaScript function alike
  function isLeapYear (year) {
    return (year % 4 == 0) && 
           ((year % 100 != 0) || (year % 400 == 0));
  }
Examples:
  alert(isLeapYear(2000))
  alert(isLeapYear(1999))
wt 5/10/01
I have a collection of methods that extend the Date Object.
One of them solves this problem.
