Consider the following a webpage:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT>
function countit()
{ testref=document.getElementById('test');
for (i=1; i<=1000; i++)
testref.inny.value=i;
}
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<form id=test>
<input id=inny size=10>
<input type=button value="count now" onclick=countit()>
</form>
</BODY>
</HTML>
In Mozilla you will see a counter going rather slowly from 1 to 1000. In IE
you will only see the figure 1000 after a short wait.
I suspect that this is major reason why Mozilla is so slow when you have
many input fields.
Does anybody know why this is made so?
