Hi, There is no order guarantee in either case (MDC doesn't discuss order [1], MSDN specifically says it's random[2]). You can determine empirically that IE does it one way and FF another, but you can't know that that won't change from dot release to dot release or even page to page.
If you need to guarantee the order of handlers, you'll need to attach a single handler and then have it register callbacks; have the handler call the callbacks in response to the event -- in an order you define.
