How does this fix affects the other browsers (such as
IE4, Mozilla, opera, etc)? The reason for destroying
the elm was to release memory, etc. I'm not sure it
DOM will automatically remove the elm from one parent
to the next. But if this works fine then we can look
into it. To submit patches you can 1) make your
change, 2) Zip the modified file into a .zip file, 3)
upload them through the patch service on DynAPI's
website.

Well, normal you could post them to the bugs section
of the site
(http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=5757&atid=105757)
or you could send an email to the dev-help group, etc.
But since you've made mention of it we can deal with
it as we speak. 

Please provide a working example of the bugs and send
it to this group.

Best regards,
