Quirky Web Bug: Crashing when Running a Brute Force Search Algorithm (Little Surprise)

Standard Resistor Calculator
A browser tool made in HTML5

I've managed to break the web version of the Standard Resistor tool by entering a large ratio in the ratio tool and then searching within a large E-series. I'm guessing that this process is taking too long and/or taking up too many resources, causing a crash of some sort. I'll try splitting this brute-force search algorithm into chunks via a coroutine to help keep the program responsive. I'll try this along with improving the text scaling, releasing the update as version 1.1.
