A simple JavaScript function that doubles every character on a web page – useful when testing layouts for i18n issues

	var pseudolocalize = function pseudolocalize(arg){
	if(typeof arg === 'string'){
	var elements = document.querySelectorAll(arg);
	for(var i=0, len=elements.length; i<len; i++){
	pseudolocalize(elements[i]);
	}
