[Javascript] Limits to string length in Firefox?!?

[Liam Rice]

Hi there, I've got an issue with what appears to be a limit to the
length of a string in Firefox.  It loops through the array of checkboxes
from another frame just fine, but it seems to kill the string (sRegions)
that I am building when it's about half way through the list.  The
string seems to be okay in IE.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks

function getArguments() {
  var sEffectiveFrom = '1/1/1970';
  var sEffectiveTo = '1/1/2099';
  var sPostedFrom = '1/1/1970';
  var sPostedTo = '';
  var sDivisions = '';
  var sPrevDivision = '';
  var sRegions = '';
  var sYears = '';
  var sTypes = '';
  var sNational = 'F';
  
  for (var i=0; i<window.frames[2].document.forms["frmDivs"].length;
i++) {
    if (window.frames[2].document.forms["frmDivs"][i].type == 'checkbox'
&& window.frames[2].document.forms["frmDivs"][i].checked) {
      if
(window.frames[2].document.forms["frmDivs"][i].name.indexOf("reg_") >=0)
{
        aRegName = window.frames[2].document.forms["frmDivs"][i].name;
        aRegName = aRegName.split("_");
 
//console.info(window.frames[2].document.forms["frmDivs"][i].name);
        //console.info('div' + aRegName[1] + ':: region::' +
aRegName[2]);
        if (aRegName[1] != sPrevDivision) {
          sDivisions += '"' + aRegName[1] + '",';
          sPrevDivision = aRegName[1];
        }
        if (aRegName[2].length > 0) {
          sRegions += '"' + aRegName[2] + '",';
        }
        console.info('array::' + aRegName[2]);
        console.info('region::' + sRegions);
        //console.info(typeof(aRegName[2]));
      }
    }
