WMLScript supports several literals that are not included in JavaScript. The invalid value is one of them. When you divide a number by zero, you get the invalid value. You also get it if an operation results in a floating-point number that is not part of the set of finite real numbers supported by the single-precision floating-point format. In fact, any data type conversion failure results in a returned value of invalid. Most of WMLScript's 70 functions return invalid in case of error.
