Activex Event catching in Javascript

Hi!

My activex control performs some timeconsuming operation and I want to update the user on that. So I have an activex event which I fire from inside & then catch it in Javascript to update the Html page.

I am trying to update just a text field in HTML form, but it doesn't update it.
What I get to see is directly the last value in the Text field, each doesn't show each updation. If I put an 'alert' statement in the Event Handle then I could see the updation to Text field.

Is there any timing problem with the Browser? Why doesn't it update the Text field as soon as I update it in the Event handler?

If anyone knows of such issues, I would like to know about it, please.
Thanx
