[Javascript] onreset functionality in MS/IE

[Hakan M (Backbase)]

It's 21:41 here, and I'm off for the pub, so I won't be able to help you 
until monday. What I can say is that your problem is most likely not in 
the onreset event. :) But feel free to post a link to the problem if it 
persists til monday.

Regards,
H
