IE memory leaks The following script locks IE, ha de ha ha. I have read alot about memory leaks and they talk about circular references, however I don't see the circular reference.  Any ideas?  var iCount = 0; function scrollUp() {  oDiv = document.getElementById("content");  while (oDiv.scrollTop < (550 * iCount)) {   if (oDiv.scrollTop < (100 * iCount)) {    iJump = 2;   }   else {    if (oDiv.scrollTop < (500 * iCount)) {     iJump = 5;    }    else {     iJump = 1;    }   }   oDiv.scrollTop += iJump;  } } window.onload = function() {  oLink = document.getElementById("link_next");  oLink.onclick = function() {   iCount += 1;    scrollUp();   return false;  } } thanks!

dodonnell on Oct 25, 2005 at 2:47:20 AM (# 2) well, no memory leak, just a big coding error.  The while loop never exited! sorry to waste your time. 6qing88 on Oct 31, 2005 at 2:42:38 AM (# 3) Be serious, the while loop is a infinite MHenke on Oct 31, 2005 at 3:40:11 AM (# 4) And where, seriously, is the difference between a while loop that never gets exited and an infinite one? 6qing88 on Nov 1, 2005 at 3:28:23 AM (# 5) function scrollUp() {  oDiv = document.getElementById("content");  while (oDiv.scrollTop < (550 * iCount)) {             // While loop starts   if (oDiv.scrollTop < (100 * iCount)) {           // If condition statement starts    iJump = 2;   }                                                              // End of the above if statement   else {                                                       //    if (oDiv.scrollTop < (500 * iCount)) {     iJump = 5;    }                                                           // End else    else {                                                       //     iJump = 1;    }                                                              // End else   }                                                               // I guess the position is end of the while loop   oDiv.scrollTop += iJump;                           // In fact, oDiv.scrollTop just add iJump for one time                                                                 // For example: oDiv.scrollTop < 550 * iCount then the previous  while loop will never exit.  }                                                             // End of the function }                                                              // ??? Why?        the error ocurred
