Designmode IFrames and event handlers in Firefox 1.5

[jdlwright]

Hi all, I busted a gut getting my design-mode iframe to work properly
in FF1 and IE, and just when I thought everything worked nice I
discovered that in FF1.5 event handlers in the iframe are no longer
processed;

http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs...ing_in_Mozilla

they infer that event handlers were never handled, but they were in
1.0.6...
Anyway - can anyone suggest how I can work around this, basically I
want to be able to detect when a specific span element in my iframe's
document is clicked?

TIA
Jim

If your document containing the editable iframe wants to know when
something is clicked in the editable iframe then it can certainly set up
event listeners on the iframe document, simple example
<http://home.arcor.de/martin.honnen/javascript/2006/01/test2006011901.html>
works for me on Windows with IE 6, Mozilla 1.7, Firefox 1.5 and Opera 9
