What are the pros and cons of using Event.observe vs. element.onxxx =
somefunction ?
I noticed that a lot of sau code doesn't use Event.observe. For example,
InPlaceEditor uses
this.form.onsubmit = this.onSubmit.bind(this);
In my code I've made a habit of using the equivalent (for example):
this.onSubmitListener = this.onSubmit.bind(this);
Event.observe(this.form,'submit',this.onSubmitListener);
So that in my "dispose" methods I can cleanup properly by calling:
Event.stopObserving(this.form,'submit',this.onSubmitListener);
Am I just wasting my time? Is the Prototype method more or less
leak-prone than the .onxxx = function method?
Thanks,
Colin
