Unobtrusive Javascript Obfuscates Event Handling

Question

You know what I liked best about obtrusive javascript? You always knew what it was going to do when you triggered an event.

Answer 1

One thing: you shouldn't be able to see what will happen in JavaScript by looking at the HTML code. What nuisance is that? HTML is for structure.

If you want to check what events are bound to certain elements, there's a bookmarklet called visual event for now, and firebug 1.6 (IIRC) will have some sort of event inspector.
