[thelist] Back to the 'javascript:;' thing

[Michael Pemberton]

i think they both are faulty.  the onclick vlaue should be PURE javascript.
It is not allowed to contain the "javascript:" part of your example code.

also, I believe that the first version is more compatible with more browsers
that the second version.  The <img> does not have an onclick method until only
the very latest incarnations.
