Micha, I'm at a crossroads, in that I typically defensive code when in DHTML (or any language which has auto-garbage collection enabled) - yet i'm concerned its an un-needed amount of work... ie reminds me of writing 115 lines of code to print "hello world" - sure its Zen powerd to the 10th degree - yet seems like i over did the task.
I guess what i was asking is that what kind of application or if any out there that are being used suffer from this leak issue? and is it really an issue or like you stated with flash, happens but really not many notice only us perfectionists ;) On Tue, 8 Mar 2005 10:14:30 +0100, Micha Schopman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dave, > > There is no massive leak if you clean up before you leave the room.
