When i try to reference a textarea in the parent window, for the first
time it will return 'undefined', and will return '[object
HTMLTextAreaElement]' thereafter. This happens to both Firefox 3.0.5
and IE 7.0.5730.13 under XP SP3.

Here are the two html files;

I'm not sure if it has something to do with my settings, let me know
if you experience the same thing. Thank you.
