It has been pointed out that, for example, 'load' in DOM 3 is not cancelable, that the earlier SVG spec didn't have them cancelable, that there is no default action anyway, but if there is, such as informing the user that a transaction is in progress there are lots of drawbacks to canceling that and no clear benefit to justify keeping it cancelable. cheers Chaals -- Jean-Yves Bitterlich Senior Staff Engineer Sun Microsystems GmbH Sonnenallee 1, 85551 Heimstetten, Germany Mobile: +49-172-8187243 Phone: +49-89-46008-1097 (x61097) Fax: +49-89-46008-2978 (x62978) Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Amtsgericht München: HRB 161028 Geschäftsführer: Marcel Schneider, Wolfgang Engels, Dr. Roland Bömer Vorsitzender des Aufsichtsrates: Martin Häring WEEE-Reg.-Nr.
