[Javascript] looking for HACK for events

[Roger Roelofs]

Walter,

I saw a way to do this somewhere a while ago, but I haven't been able 
to find it. I vaguely remember it had something to do with getting the 
event(s) already attached to the object and adding one to that list.  
It may have used anonymous functions, or it may have used 
AddEventListener, I can't remember.
