You're using <a href="javascript:something();"> and you shouldn't be, see
the above FAQ entry.

It is because you misuse the "javascript:" URI scheme in the "href"
attribute of your link. The URL of the displayed resource has
changed and so the animation stops. See the FAQ for details.

de.comp.lang.javascript exists and this particular problem is currently
discussed there *again*, too.
