remove IE6 mouse event

Nibbus

Hi there!

I had some problems putting mouse events to work on IE6 some days ago. After googling a bit I found this solution:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
function addOnMouseOver(obj, id)

{

        obj.onmouseover = function() {

            changeProcessOpacity(id);

            };

        obj = null;

}

This works fine, and solves me the annoying thing of IE assuming the event, but not doing anythingwith it when I pass it like this

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

obj.setAttribute('onmouseover', "changeProcessOpacity(id);");

Don´t know if it´s common thing on IE6 or just my "noobity", but it didn´t work...

My question now is how can I remove the event using my approach. I´m passing an empty function, but IE is not liking it...

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Nibbus

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

obj.onmouseover = null;

should remove the event.

IE can't attach events with setAttribute.

Thanks, it seems to work ;)
I kept the obj = null; at the end, I think that it brings no problem.

Thanks again
