you know in vbs how you can have a function button1_onclick()

is there a way to have such function in javascript? instead of using the
onclick method...

Thanks

In javascript is called Event Capturing, for IE all you do is use
object.eventtocapture, or say
document.FORMNANE.ELEMENTNAME.onclick=FUNCTIONTOEXECUTE;
For Netscape, you need to first capture the event by
window.captureEvents(Event.CLICK), if you want to capture multiples,
then -> window.captureEvents(Event.CLICK | Event.MOUSEDOWN | Event.MOUSEUP |
Event.RESIZE), once you've initialized the event capture, then you define
the actual capture, window.onmouseup=FUNCTIOTOEXECUTE; and so on. NS does
event capturing at the window level, not other objects, you can release
event capturing by using window.releaseEvents(Event.CLICK) and so on for NS,
in IE you just set it to null, document.onmouseover=null;

In IE, you can use
<script language="javascript" for="Button1" event="onclick">
// event code here
</script>
