i can't find anything in the script that would cause netscape to hang, but
there is an error:
the first argument in setTimeout is evaluated from the scope of the window,
not the function, therefore direction is undefined. try this:
timer1 = setTimeout("move(\""+direction+"\")", 1);
have to add the quotes and then the value... if it still hangs, send the
URL, it might not be in this snippet. also, you may not have to restart. if
your running windows, press ctrl+alt+del and access the task manager and end
task netscape. when you close the browser in this case, the application does
not completely close, thats why its still messed up when you re-open. -
