Re: [Dynapi-Dev] memory leak

I've solved the problem I posted earlier. I forgot to call the DynLayer
prototype in my ImgButton prototype. The first two lines of the ImgButton
function in my ModWindow widget should be:
this.DynLayer=DynLayer;
this.DynLayer();
This fixes the memory leak in Mozilla1.4/NS7.1, but IE 6 still leaks. It's
less than before, but still there. I can live with it for now. Now if I
could just fix that pesky permission denied error in Mozilla, I'd be happy.
