hi there
I have a bizaar thing here, where code which should work doesnt, unless i pop an alert() into the function
here is an example, with a html file (relevent only):
The javascript file (relevent functions only):
input numbers into the large text box until the top text box scrolls down, so the top number is not 1.
click the reset button. this should clear textarea 1 and reset textarea2 to have 1 at the top.
doesnt work? so uncomment the alert("strVals") line.
now, one you close the alert box, it works. How weird.
anyone care to speculate a remedy? (leaving a popup alert is not an option)
