The [removed] event is not firing in IE8

Question

I stripped down this javascript to be as simple as possible, and it\'s still not working in IE8.

function addLoadEvent(func) {
  var oldonload = window.onload;
          


        

Answer 1

The standard onload event won't work if another script is called using an HTML defer command.

<script for="window" event="onload" defer="1">products.related();</script>

Changing the above to use the standard addLoadEvent() function made it work.
