Sorry, I was just suggesting a hypothetical. I don't have 1000 listeners and I understand that doing so will eat memory on the client. I was hoping that there was a solution where I can find all the elements that have a class that starts with "test_" and Javascript will be able to add an onclick observer to those elements. This way, I wouldn't have to know the elements that start with "test_" ahead of time.
