I am using prototype 1.6.0.3 and IE8. Although I think the same
problem occurred in IE7. Why do the following lines of code give
errors?
<script type='text/javascript'>
element = Element('div') // Doesn't work when created this way.
element.attachEvent('onclick', function(evt) {alert('hello')} ); //
can't attach event.
</script>
This doesn't work either:
<script type='text/javascript'>
element = Element('div')
Event.observe(element, 'click', function(evt) {alert('hello')});
</script>
However, when I do not use prototype to create the div element, both
of these do not generate errors:
<script type='text/javascript'>
element = document.createElement('div');
element.attachEvent('onclick', function(evt) {alert('hello')} );
</script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
element = document.createElement('div');
Event.observe(element, 'click', function(evt) {alert('hello')});
</script>
I was thinking that a div created with
element = Element('div')
can do everything that a div created with
element = document.createElement('div');
can do, but it will not allow me to attach an event for some reason.
Any ideas as far as why the first two don't work?
Thanks.
