Heyas! I am a semi-javascript newbie. I noticed that Javascript isn't really great with long running recursive methods or a long running while loop that can be memory intensive. I see the browser popup "A script on the page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding..... Stop the script or continue". I was wondering how people have dealt with this. An example of such a method that I was implementing is Flood Fill. Basically, fill a contoor with a specified colour.
I know you can set a preference so that this message does not popup untill you run a bazillion line (whatever you set to), but that is not what I am looking for. I want a better performance. Other alternatives I can think of is wrting a custom xpcom object in C that does my computation.. or maybe a hidden java applet. It would be good to know how other people have dealt with this problem in general. Thanks, Preet p.s. In case anyone is interested, my flood fill method is a modified version of http://www.htmlgoodies.com/primers/jsp/article.php/3622321
