Can anyone explain what's going on here?

scancolor=0

var temp=255
=255
print(temp.toString(16));
FF
=undefined
var temp=255*Math.pow(256,scancolor);
=255
print(temp.toString(16));
255
=undefined

Why is the argument to toString() being ignored in the second case?
Other JS interpreters don't seem to have this behavior.
