Javascript timer bug if used for long period

If you try and display the time and call updates very frequently, after a while the users will notice that Notes is using 50%+ CPU and freezing.

I tried only updating for the minute changes rather than seconds, but this just delayed on onset of the problem. IBM investigated and advised there was a problem with the way the Javascript timer was handled.

I had the time permanently in the banner of an application. This could be open for a whole day and overnight if the user did not shut-down, so using a short term timer that the user starts and stops may avoid hitting this issue.

On another occasion I tried to use the timer to capture the Return Key being pressed in a field to simulate a Web Page 'submit on return key' within a Notes Form. This also experienced the timer bug.
