Inserting events on cells generated by insertCell

[manolopm]

Hi:

I've a problem with cells generated by insertCell, I need to add
"onclick" event something like this

html+='\t<td class='+ClassSelection+' id='+i+'-'+j
+' onclick='+this.GetName()+'.Select('+i+','+j+');'
+ this.GetName()+'.Draw(true);>'
+actual.Text+'</td>\n';*/

to generate something like:

<td class="class" id=1-3 onclick=main.Select(1-3);main.Draw(true);>
sometext </td>

with DOM I'm doing something like

var cell=row.insertCell(-1);
cell.innerHTML=actual.Text;
cell.className=ClassSelection;
cell.id=i+'-'+j;

and that works but I don't know how to do to generate the "onclick"
part.... Any help?

Answering my own question:

the trick is use setAttribute to the cell. Ex:
cell.setAttribute('onclick','alert(\'something\')' );

cell.onclick = function() { alert(this); }

cell.setAttribute('onclick','alert(\'something\')' );

cell.onclick=function(){alert('something')}

Be vary wary with IE and setAttribute. It is a crap shoot as to whether
it works right or not.
