hmmmmm, i sure hope so!

i've gotten onresize to work (just a syntax mistake), but still can't seem 
to get onscroll to work. here is a simple version of the script:

<script>
<!--
window.onscroll = myScrollHandler;
captureEvents(Event.SCROLL); // registered event type 262144

function myScrollHandler(){
  status = "X:"+pageXOffset+", Y:"+pageYOffset;
  return true;
}
//-->
</script>

SCROLL is the const 262144 in the Event object, so i know thats the official 
name of the event, and handlers merely have an on prefix. plus this works in 
IE just fine... - Cyanide_7
