First off, if i've already posted this i apologize.  I just got over
the flu (not of the swine variety) and can't remember if i'd posted
this yet.

I want to attach a function to a mouse down on an elment.

Traditionally i'd use

element.onmousedown = downObjectEv ;

function downObjectEv() {
    // do stuff
    return false ;
}

the return false is to prevent the selecting of text.  but i'd rather
use the Event.observe method, but i can't get it to properly return
false.  I've tried the following...

element.observe('mousedown', downObjectEv) ;

and

element.observe('mousedown', function() {downObject(); return
false;}) ;

what am i missing?
