String length property always return result as "9" rather than actual string length.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

1. Simple Javascript used to print given string length:
===========
var text = "hello";
var txtlen = text.length;
document.write(txtlen);
===========

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
1. Expected output should be 5.
2. Actual result is 9. [ basically, it initialized obj with "undefined" and  
always return "undefined" length as 9.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1. initial version 1.0 from SVN.

Please provide any additional information below.
