If there are errors, you've got a JavaScript enabled browser with broken
JavaScript. A better test would be to disable JavaScript and see if your
site is still usable. A non-JavaScript client would ignore the references
in the event handlers.
Do I really need to define behaviour? I don't think I can! Think of it as
implementation, inline-style is implementation. :-)
