It could be many things. Your solution may have worked but that is only a small portion of the task. When we were hiring ages ago we'd look at style, formatting, structure, etc. This is especially true for a small company. The place I use t

Last time we were looking at the web/javascript based cross-platform tools there seemed to be lots of issues with memory handling (running out of memory to be specific). Is this still the case or, even, has this ever been a major issue for
