283177 - Scripts works after i reloade the same page. So in the new page i get some errors like undefined variabiles.

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[daniele_dll]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; it-IT; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041110 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; it-IT; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041110 Firefox/1.0

I've a page that dinamically shows news using a div and JS and i've an
onMouseOver and onMouseOut events setted on a link to show this div.
These events start a timer (when i get out of the link) and stop the timer(when
i get over the link).

The problem is that when i move over one of these links, the timer starts...and
here all ok, but after that i reload soon the page and, some seconds after, i
get an error of undefined variabile.
I think that the JS engine remains loaded because a timer is started so when the
function is called by timer this doesn't found anything because page was relaoded.

sorry for my horrible english :\

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set a var
2. Create a timer, for example 5 seconds, that calls a function that show this
var, for example with an alert
3. Reload soon the page using F5 (or something like this)
4. Wait for the error
Actual Results:  
I've getted undefined variables

Expected Results:  
Do nothing...

(this site is in italian)

go on news section (under the third block in the bottom side of the central
columnt), move on news links and press F5 or, after that you have done all this,
while the page is loading, try to move mouse fastly on these links

you need to do all this fastly

You will get these errors:
- iNewsTimeout is not defined
- voiceMenuClicked is not defined
- iTimerID is not defined

(Please don't pay attention to oNewsDIV has no properties, this is an error that
i've fixed on my working copy and the fix isin't online)
