Thanks to all who helped. It looks like I figured out what the problem
was, with the use of mozilla's DOM inspector, js debugger, and JSIDE (a
javascript ide) that I downloaded after googling "javascript ide" (it
appears to be quite good). In any case, the whole issue was checking
whether or

You still aren't telling us what happens. Its very hard to find

The code is very likely doing what you have asked it to do,
so when we read it it will seem to 'work' at a superficial level.

I believe you want to increment index, not playable.

Hi Orri, I've pondered that too, and you're out of luck, I think.
There is a _javascript_/XUL/XBL/XPCOM interface in Mozilla browsers, it's
