Attachment: testcase

Running this code onload results in the textbox being empty:

		var test;
		function init() {
			test = document.getElementById("test");
			test.style.display = "none";
			setTimeout("test.style.display = '';", 10);
			test.value = "foo";
		}

See attachment. Works fine in 3.5, broken in 3.6b1.
