Ajax update duplicates DOM in memory

[michaelb]

Hi,

When updating any element on the page by an ajax call, the DOM just gets bigger and bigger (factor 2!)
Because i use a jQuery selecter, the returned result will crash my browser.

Just use this javascript to see (i have some textareas on my page):

Code: Select all

jQuery(document).ajaxComplete( function(){
    alert(document.getElementsByTagName('textarea').length);
});

will output:

ajax req 1 : x
ajax req 2 : x*2
ajax req 3 : x*2*2
...........

Using 2.2M1 and 2.2.RC1-SNAPSHOT

Used a textarea auto grow jquery script that caused it.
