IE6 setAttribute “onclick” not working

OK, I don’t have time to fully test this one, but when I dynamically create DOM nodes in a YUI panel, and then create an anchor tag and add an onclick handler to it (no HREF) by using setAttribute, IE6 doesn’t register the click event. It seems that I need to use another event attaching method, like YUI Event addListener() – that works fine in both IE and FF.

IE6 :hover Support

IE6 does not support :hover pseudo-classes on non-anchor elements. Ugh.

There are a few fixes out there. This one uses prototype. I was able to translate it to use YUI Event and Dom pretty easily. Wish I had an open-source agreement with my employer so I could show it here.
