Hi Dirk et. al.

If you guys could work your magic one more time, I think we're really
close...

It looks like we have a race condition in the current implementation of
offsetHeight. It works, but only if you let Konqueror "think" about it
for a while. The following code demonstrates the problem:

btw: what happened to innerHTML yesterday? It's slow as heck now. Makes
debugging a real pain in this case. If you go back to the menus at
http://www.kimanddavidforever.org/jsmenus/LoadMe.html and press the show
debug button, konqi takes 100% CPU and drags for a *very* long time. Any
thoughts? 

<html>
<body>
<form>
<input type="button" onclick="go()" value="Get the height!">
</form>
</body>
</html>
<script language="javascript">
function go() {
var newDiv = document.createElement("DIV");
newDiv.innerHTML =
"hello<br>hello<br>hello<br>hello<br>hello<br>hello<br>hello<br>hello<br
>";
newDiv.id = "newDiv";
document.body.appendChild (newDiv);
//this alert will return 0
alert("doesn't work - offsetHeight is " +
document.getElementById("newDiv").offsetHeight);
//this alert will return the correct value
alert("will work fine -- offsetHeight is " +
document.getElementById("newDiv").offsetHeight);
}

</script>

Best regards,

David
