I would go this way in one coding block:
myElement.setAttribute("onclick","myClickFunction()")
myElement.setAttribute("onmouseover","myMouseOver()")
myElement.setAttribute("onmouseout","myMouseOut()")
...etc.
To dynamically dump them:
myElement.removeAttribute("onclick")
myElement.removeAttribute("onmouseover")
myElement.removeAttribute("onmouseout")

Can you show me an example of the above? Believe me, I'm glad to
learn new techniques.
Thanks,
Francis
