indeed ... inline functions are problem number 2, anonymous or not, unless the removeEventListener is not performed inside the function itself so that at least the function name could be reused while if anonymous and "use strict" is in place there's no way to know which function is it.
However, two inline functions cannot possibly be the same object so, as problem itself, I would not even consider to solve this. br On Mon, Jan 9, 2012 at 12:35 PM, David Bruant <[email protected]> wrote: > Le 08/01/2012 19:47, John J Barton a écrit : > >> (...) >> >> window.addEventListener('load'**, boundOnLoad, false); >> ... >> window.removeEventListener('**load', boundOnLoad, false); >> The JS method 1) must be bound to the correct object 2) be reference-able >> for the removeEventListener. >> >> This combination prevents simple inline functions so commonly used by JS >> devs from being applied to DOM event registration, a very common use of >> inline functions.
