Default Client Side Memory Problems

We have a web interface system that uses JS heavily throughout. Sometimes users will experience random JS errors. We think this is due to the JS using all the client side memory on their computer. Is there a way to reduce the amount of memory that JS uses like a clear buffer or something?

Thanks,
Anne

Hi,

I'm not sure if there is a Javascript function that can be used to flush used memory, but what you can try to do is set every object you created back to NULL or nothing as soon as you are finished using them. I suppose there is a Javascript garbage collector that automatically handles this for you, but it's better to be on the safer side.

Cheers!
Marlon
