Description Anders Carlsson 2006-01-20 09:31:38 PST 
If an onerror handler is set on a node it will never be invoked. An onerror handler specified as an element 
attribute will however be invoked. From the looks of it, the reason is that the onerror JS setter adds a 
listener for "khtmlErrorEvent" instead of "errorEvent"

Test case

I made a test case demonstrating registering an onerror handler via 1.inline (works) 2) onerror (doesn't) and 3.addEventListener.

Fixed in bug 8511, and there's also bug 8519 for window.onerror.
