------- Comment #9 from brkemper at comcast.net  2008-02-03 20:34 PDT -------
I just ran into this same thing (as comment #7) in Version 3.0.4 (523.12.2).

Given a form named "pops" and the name of an input of that form assigned to the
variable "which", the following does not work (but should):

        var popUpText = "";
        popUpText += eval("document.pops." + which + ".value");
        alert(popUpText)

However, the following modification does work:

        var popUpText = "";
        var thisthing = eval("document.pops." + which + ".value")
        popUpText += thisthing;
        alert(popUpText)

This even simpler modification also works (but limits its use):

        var popUpText = eval("document.pops." + which + ".value")
        alert(popUpText)

So, it seems thatthis version of Webkit does not like combining "+=" with
"eval".

The Safari 3.04 does not have this problem, and neither did version 2.
