The scripts are evaluated when the timeout expires. What I'm
interested in is why they need to be stripped when the HTML is
inserted. Most browsers don't care if the script elements are inside
the html when using innerHTML.

Netscape 6 automatically evaluates scripts when using innerHTML. It is
the only browser I know of that does this. I wonder if that is the
reason the scripts are stripped. Netscape 6 is pretty old now.

I'm curious if there is another reason I don't know of.

Thanks,
Peter
