Thanks Jeff.
Yes, it looks as though evt is automatically assumed as the argument in all the
browsers I've seen! Thanks, it's only three keystrokes longer than the other
way.
cheers

O.addEventListener("click", add, false)
should work just fine. Is there a browser where it doesn't? I don't see any
advantage to wrapping that function call in another function.
The third argument specifies whether you want to handle the event during the
bubble or the capture phase (not possible using the onclick attribute).
Another advantage to using addEventListener is that multiple handlers for the
same event can be added.
