354394 - document.open/write/close removes event listeners

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 357651

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Description

[Erik Arvidsson]

Using document.write (etc) removes any event listeners added to the body.

Using

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060909 Firefox/1.5.0.7

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a frame
2. document.open()
3. document.write('hi')
4. document.close()
5. documen.onclick = f;

after about a half second document.onclick is reset to undefined

Expected behavior:

document.onclick should not be removed


Possible workaround includes using document.addEventListener instead.

This regressed between 2005-8-19 and 2005-08-20:

I guess a regression from bug 303981 or bug 303765?

I can't reproduce this anymore, marking fixed thanks to bug 357651.

Yeah, this seems ok now. I wonder when it was fixed?
