adding an event handler to a variable

178 100+
I am completely confused here. My application generates an image when a button is clicked and sets the appropriate attributes (height, width id, etc) the problem I am having is that each image that is created must have an onmousedown event handler added. Since these images are created in the script I don't see how I can do this.

Any ideas??

You can add it like this.
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. img.onmousedown = function () {
  2.     doABC('x','y','z');
  3.     doXYZ();
  4.     alert('mouse down');
  5. };
Not only onmousedown, but you can add any event like this.
