a little long winded, but basically ive narrowed it down to something
happening when the getSearch function is called.

Thanks,
jl
i have a widget that displays some xml data from a website.
everything works
fine, until i leave the widget using widget.openURL . when you
return to the
widget it seems to lose all javascript functionality that used the
widget.
object.
widget.openURL no longer works, the flip transitions no longer
work, and my
preference keys are gone. basically all functions that use
widget.anything no
longer work.
anyone have any idea what is happening?
andy
