Is this possbile using JScript...?

[Code Wizard]

OK,let's say I want to add to some tags an attribute,like <IMG NOCLICK src=...>
Then I want to automatically set the event handlers using JScript(I know how to do this).
Really,the quiestion is,can I add custom attributes to HTML tags,and then use JScript to manipulate them...?

As far as I know that can't be done in [x]html, but in xml it would definitely possible. But who knows, maybe there is some obscure way to do it.

IE would allow it, or least it used to but I stopped doing it cause no other browsers would allow it, another solution is to use XML where u define the dtd urself.

Any browser will allow it (AFAIK) - the page just won't validate.

Now, I don't know about attributes without values, but valued attributes should work just fine.

Good,now can anyone direct me to the proper link?

all you reall need is

elem.setAttribute( sAttribute, sValue );

and

elem.getAttribute( sAttribute );
