Hi Radoslav,
Thanks for reply, I have indeed did something very similar to this,
just some different terminology
plus i have wrapped the Form.Element.setValue method to fire
'value:changed' event too.
You might wanna do that too if you are initializing your form elements
with some default values or setting values programatically :)

cheers

 You could you same approach to emulate onchange, or event use
 something like this, for inputs ( I'm using my Event.delegate
 http://gist.github.com/66568 )

 document.delegate('input[type=text]', 'focus:in', function(){
    this.store('value', this.getValue());
 });

 document.delegate('input[type=text]', 'focus:out', function(){
   if (this.retrieve('value') != this.getValue()) this.fire
 ('value:changed', { previousValue: this.retrieve('value'); });
 });

 document.delegate('input[type=text]', 'value:changed', function(){
   // ... some cool code here 
 });

 Hope this will be helpfull

Hi Mona,

Have you considered using Form.Observer[1] instead of events?

 Hello Prototypers,

 I am currently in the process of implementing events delegation on HTML forms.
 As you might know, IE does not bubble the onchange event :( and i find
 that the onblur is a poor and a high maintenance alternative.
 Can anyone propose a neater solution?
 The forms i'm delegating events on have repeatable sections, so that's
 why i would insist on delegation.

 Thanks in advance

 cheers

oh that would be a big overhead for me as the forms i'm talking about
can grow to have 100s of inputs.
so serializing to detect changes doesn't seem to be a good idea,
neither having TimedObservers on Form.Element level.

guess my best option is to set the onchange attribute on input
elements to trigger some custom event
input onchange=Element.fire(this, 'form:change') /
then capture this event on the form object ..

argh i can't believe how much time we spend on IE hacks and workarounds.

None of my business... but you're certainly doing something wrong UI-
wise if you have 100s of inputs on the same page.

Best,
