If that is at all unclear from the current specifications (and I am not particularly convinced) that should be clarified in DOM Events. There are plenty of objects around that implement EventTarget. Saying for every single one of them they are standalone is make work. -- Anne van Kesteren http://annevankesteren.nl/
