Hi,
So basically you're replacing a DOM0 handler (the onclick attribute)
with a DOM2 handler (via #observe) the first time it's clicked. My
guess based on what you're observing is that IE8 fires DOM0 handlers,
and then goes and fires any DOM2 handlers the element has. That
doesn't actually surpris
Thanks, that explains a lot. I do most of my coding on firefox and
chrome and IE always throws me for a loop. I'll go with "return false"
and let you know how it goes.

Event.stop(event) was actually one of the first things I tried right
after I posted my original message but it didn't work. I think the
only way to prevent the anomalous behavior is to wait until the first
event bubbles all the way up without any DOM2 handlers in the way
which is what your setTimeo
Thanks, good to know.

According to the Prototype documentation concerning the class method
Element.setStyle, the method takes "a hash of property-value pairs" as
the parameter. And, indeed, the following works as expected ...
$( 'elm_01' ).setStyle({height: '200px'});
so why doesn't the following work ...
