Now I am puzzled: http://jsfiddle.net/44b3P/5/ in Chrome, alerts seems to be blocking, and thus I get msg box with "1", then 3 times a msg box with "got it". in IE and Firefox though, I get simultanously a msg box with "1", and the one with "got it".
I think my current example is more obscure than the one with "debugger", as "alert" seems to be nonblocking in some current browsers. 2012/10/8 Hallvord R. M.
