Is every JavaScript Object a function?

Question

Is there a JavaScript Object that is not a function?

javascript: x=y=z=Object; alert([window.navigator.userAgent,x,y,z].join(\"\\n\\n\"))

You didn't create objects, you created references to the Object function. If you wanted those to be objects you could do this:

x = y = z = {}

Then alert(x) will return object [Object].

To (hopefully) encompass the comments - by default Object is a Function which constructs Objects. If you reassign the name Object (Firefox at least seems to allow me to, haven't tested all browsers) then Object will no longer be a Function, it will be whatever you assigned to it. So then, the answer is "no", Object is not always a Function, but should be unless it has been explicitly re-declared. According to Firebug:

>>> Object
Object()
>>> Object = {}
Object {}
>>> Object
Object {}

Seemingly it can be reassigned. I cannot vouch for what kind of impacts that would have, if any.
