Recognized Expert Top Contributor <body onmousemove="mo veMe()">
This function can also be called as
document.onmous emove = function {moveMe();};
Similarly what can be done for onmousemove="mo veMe(event)" ?

I am interested in the answer to this also, I recently had the same issue. I just took a shortcut by storeing the "event" in a global variable, but if theres another way I would like to know.
Thanks, Josh

i think you mean something like the following? - function my_event(e) {
-
alert('test ' + e.target.tagName);
-
}
-
-
window.document.onclick = function(event) {
-
return function(event) { my_event(event) };
-
}();
you should always avoid the assignment as a string since this is eval-like and never needed, even in the setTimeout and setInterval methods. but the best way would be to use attachEvent() for IE and addEventListene r() for the other browsers ... when it comes to event-handling.
note: the example works in FF/Mozilla - IE has no target, but you may use srcElement here ... ;)

no problem ... i just hate that eval and eval-like things ... since it is not needed as i said and makes the code quite ugly :) there are needs for it (when JSON is to be evaled) but even that might be obsolete in the future ... have a look here in case you are interested :)
kind regards

Don't forget that IE uses the global window.event. Use something like this to get the target.

Thanks, so it finally worked like this.. - document.onmousemove = function (event) {
-
if (!event) event = window.event;
-
drag(event);
-
};

Yes, and another alternative: - event = event || window.event;

Thats better, will use this one ... - drag(event || window.event);

I am trying to dynamically add an onclick to an element,
however I just can't get the syntax right. consider the

In IE (tested IE6 on W2k&WXP) onmousemove event appears to fire
continually
when mouse is over the document and not moving or touched at all, even
when
mouse is physically detached from the computer. Same page on Firefox
works
well (event fires only when mouse moves, not when it is static on the
document). Seems a bug, doesn't it? Anyone knows something about this
or a
solution?
