hmm ok, i have to try some more, maybe i can find out how to reproduce
this strange behavior

I am working alot with js functions that init tab menus ...
When I write these i usually use things like {{=URL(foobar)}} in the
JS
With the example above you can mix the web2py template language with
pure JS. This is nicer for me since vim highlits, indents, ... pure JS
much better than embedded JS. Also you can then pass args and vars to
your JS, and use URL() (which is better if you need routing)
Here is an example how i use it. This are the views of the annotate
controller
http://semanticsbml.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/semanticsbml/trunk/webui/views/annotate/
In the controller i just load the script.js once (index), all other
ajax loaded functions just use a JS init_foobar() function to activate
their buttons/fields with special functions
http://semanticsbml.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/semanticsbml/trunk/webui/controllers/annotate.py?revision=3325&view=markup
now i can apply this to a server and reroute all URL without having to
worry that i hard-coded them into the JS file
