In the attached example, the onClick event is not registered for the link object
inserted via assignment to innerHTML when called from the event procedure for
document.load. 

The same assignment called from within the doLoad procedure works fine.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Load attached page foo.html
2.Click "Click me to load document"
3. Document is loaded and link is changed
4. Click "Click me to demonstrate defect"


Actual Results:  After step 4, nothing happens

Expected Results:  After step 4, an alert box with the message "Works!" should
be displayed.

WFM if I fix the first attachment: anotherfoo.xml -> foo.xml.
That was (of course) causing an exception.
