Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

Hi,
My apologies if the bug has already been reported, or if it's my fault, but i'm almost sure it's not.

The incoherence i've noticed is the following :
I'm trying to generate a div, on which i can perform dragging.
If I use the following line :
div.onmousemove = function() {dragDiv(nbTextBox, this, event)}
firefox doesn't know the "event" variable.
Wheras if I use
div.setAttribute('onmousemove', 'dragthis(this, event)'); at the exact same place, it works perfectly.

I dont think i understand your saying that div.onmousemove = function() {dragDiv(nbTextBox, this, event)} should work but doesnt? Why should it work?
