hi about creating listeners

[Ricardo Garcia]

hi, now i want to register a listener:
if (document.addEv entListener)//IE6 does not support it
x.addEventListe ner('click', method, false);
else
x.onclick = method;
but my problem is that i want to pass some arguments along with the calling,
how coult i do that??


Another question, it is posible to distinguish between quirk and strict mode
in the various browsers (opera, konqueror, mozilla, ie, mainly)


Thanks

The better test is:

if(x.addEventLi stener)

That may only need to be performed once, but it would probably be more
indicative than testing for document.addEve ntListener.

You'll have to create a function to call that one. How exactly you do that
depends on what you're passing.

To be honest, you shouldn't have to. All HTML should be written to invoke
strict mode. However, you may be able to check that the
document.compat Mode property contains the substring, "CSS".

var mode = document.compat Mode;
if(('string' == typeof mode) && (-1 != mode.indexOf('C SS'))) {
// Strict rendering mode
}

This only works with IE 6, but I believe Mozilla and Opera also support it
(not sure about Konqueror).

Don't call that function, but instead create a new one:

var myMethod = function (event) {
return method(event, someArgument, someOtherArgume nt);
};
....
x.addEventListe ner('click', myMethod, false);
....
etc.

if (document.compa tMode == 'CSS1Compat') {
// standards mode
} else {
// quirks mode
}

Should work in Opera, IE and Mozilla, don't know about Konq, but probably
also that.
