I'm sorry but I have been using jsp for page layout and dont have a lot of
knowledge of how the modern browsers handle memory allocation.

It sounds like what you are saying is you can not create a large application
using only one page because the system would never release the memory. Is that
correct?

Is the garbage collection a function of the browser? Do we have any idea when it
runs?
