Can we at least get it to fire events wired in with

element.observe...

So element.observe('click',function(){ alert('Hello world'); });

If you dont use element.observe then you are on your own but if you
used element.observe you are good to go.


PS.. Why cant I just reply to these messages in gmail... It keeps
saying its blocked.
