Question

I\'ve got a JavaScript-function that sets the \"onclick\"-event of some HTML-Nodes - even if that \"onclick\"-event has been set before.

How can i check if that ev

Answer 1

Check, like this:

if(typeof someNode.onclick == "function") {
   // someNode has an event handler already set for the onclick event...
}
