I'm not sure where your getting 700 from,
anyway, if I'm correct in what you where thinking, when evaluated newRow.id,
it is 'ms_id127'
so I tried
function runBlink(idNewRow,blinker){
if(blinker){parent.idNewRow.bgColor =
""}else{parent.idNewRow.bgColor = "orange"}
}
but unfortunately still getting the same error,
data is still being wrote to the table though,

I think I've got it.
You do this:
newRow.id = newRow.uniqueID
Then pass the _ID_ here, not the object!
runBlink(" + newRow.id + "," + 0 + ")", delay * i - ( delay / 2 )
So runBlink() evaluated would look like this:
runBlink('ms_id127', 700) {
// Testing an integer? < 0 ??
if(700){ms_id127.bgColor = ""}else{ms_id127.bgColor = "orange"}
}
IE may be smart, but it's not that smart :)
idNewRow.bgColor should be parent.idNewRow.bgColor
/me crosses his fingers...
