The only reason it does not work in IE is that IE expects a function object, not a string, because of it's quirk of treating DOM attributes and JS properties as equivalent. If you try removeAttribute or setting the attribute to nil you'll see. So the failure is due to a totally independent IE bug, not because IE doesn't update handlers for DOM changes, as far as I can tell. I discussed this with Jim on IRC before. Regards, Maciej
