[Javascript] Updating Textarea in Netscape

[Peter Kronenberg]

I have a simple form with a drop down list and a Textarea.  The text in the 
Textarea is updated based on the choice in the drop-down list.  With 
Netscape, the Textarea is not being displayed properly, even though the 
objects and variables are being updated.  If you take a look at 
<http://www.carouselpuppets.com/nettest2.htm>http://www.carouselpuppets.com/nettest2.htm 
, you'll see what I mean.  At first it looks ok, but if you continue making 
selections, at some point the Textarea will be blank.  If you refresh the 
page, then the text area shows up.  If you Submit the form, it displays 
what the value should be, which again proves that the variables are being 
updated.

If you look at 
<http://www.carouselpuppets.com/nettest3.htm>http://www.carouselpuppets.com/nettest3.htm 
, this code is exactly the same, except the text in the Textarea is 
shorter.  This seems to work.

All of this works fine it IE 6.  I'm having the problem only in Netscape 6.2

Any ideas are appreicated.

thanks,
Peter
