Would you mind installing Firefox 21 to see whether the problem still exists in today's release?

It seems that the missing <label> element causes Firefox to restore the non-default input value to the wrong input. As a "workaround", use <form> tags around your form elements. Then the values do not migrate on reload.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function searchPageLoader(){
  document.body.style.backgroundColor = "#ffc";
  document.getElementById('searchareaa').innerHTML='<label></label>';
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="window.setTimeout('searchPageLoader();', 500);">
<form><!-- To replicate the problem, remove this line -->
<div id="searchareaa"></div>
<input type="text" id="pageCount" value="5">
<input type="text" id="startlimit" value="11">
<input type="text" id="endlimit" value="5">
</form>
</body>
</html>

Note: This was in Firefox 20.0.1.

After further investigation, you might need to assign a name attribute to each form element for Firefox to associate the attributes with the correct fields. See: Random disabled Firefox 23.0.1 - mozillaZine Forums.
