JavaScript Object allocation issue

I'm not a JavaScript professional, so my question might seem ridiculous. Suppose i have the following HTML block:\[code\]<div> <script type="text/javascript"> var variable_2 = new SomeObject(); </script></div>\[/code\]This clearly allocates memory on the heap for the SomeObject instance and variable_2 resides in the global context.My question is: If I have generated the previous HTML block again by using AJAX, i will then have variable_2 reference a newly allocated instance of SomeObject in the global context, right? But then, what happens to the previously allocated instance, is it garbage collected or this is a memory leak?In addition, if you may include a reference to a book or article that describes the best practices of JavaScript memory management?
