Rails spinoffs - Nov 2006 - periodical updater problems

I hope you guys can help me on this.  I have two functions.  The first
calls a periodical updater and does it quite successfully.  The second
is meant to stop said updater.  It however fails when I call it.  It
just wont stop the updater.  I''m sorry if I am missing something
stupid.

Thank you in advance,

function foobar(){
var searchvar = "ipadd=" + $F(ip) + "&commstring=" +
$F(snmpstr) +
"&snmpelem=" + $F(RSL);
var opt = {
    method: ''post'',
    parameters: searchvar,
    frequency: 1
}

new
Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater(''snmpResult'',''snmpsearch.php'',opt);

}

function barbar(){
opt.updater.options.onComplete = undefined;
opt.stop();

You''ve declared what opt is--and it is not the updater, but the  
options for the updater.  You have not assigned the updater to a  
variable.

Try something similar to:

var upd = new
Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater(''snmpResult'',''snmpsearch.php'',{
     method: ''post'',
     parameters: searchvar,
     frequency: 1
});

Thank you so very much for making my world sane again.  I defined a
global variable and assigned that process to it and it working great
now.  

Thank you again,
