IE7 Ver. 7.0.5730.11
Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition, 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3 Build 2600

I have written a HTC-file for IE to emulate gecko’s watch() function
The behaviour is attached true CSS by:

input, textarea, select
{
border: 1px solid orange;
behavior: url(../FW/htc/NK_watch.htc);
}
CSS-selector works as expected (orange border applied to all selected
elements)
url() is also correct (behaviour defined in NK_watch.htc applied to all
selected elements but INPUT, type mage)

As a test I replaced type-selectors by Universal selector *, looped true all
elements in DOM (skipping #comment) checking for behaviour-objects and found
it missing from some elements:

TITLE, META, LINK - text/css, SCRIPT - text/javascript, BODY, OPTION, TABLE,
TBODY, TR, TH, TD, INPUT – image

Table and table-childs receives behaviour-objects unless they contains
INPUT, type image, all other elements listed receives no behaviour-objects

Can’t say I have seen any limitation in the documentation regarding which
type of elements behaviors may be attached to

Is this a bug?
Is there a workaround?

Never used these, but to address the limitation on which elements see the
Applies To section of http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...23(VS.85).aspx

Note that META is not in the list. However, the others are, which suggests
either a bug or that the documentation is wrong.

Tested manual addBehavior() which attached behaviour to INPUT, type image
Also removeBehavior() worked as expected

The bad thing is that it works only once:

- Having a table where you can select a row
- Pressing Edit-button brings up a popup form which can be edited and saved
- Save and reload table is done by XMLHttpRequest()
- Pressing Edit results in addBehavior() returning 0 and no behaviour is
applied

Seems like a bug then

Seems like the problem is related to how I have implemented behaviours (wrong)
My INPUT, type image had a class containing a behaviour assigned

Assigning behaviour true CSS by global selector fails for all elements which
also has behaviour attached true another selector because basic css-rules
states that last defined will be used when 2 rules declare the same attribute
(behaviour) for an element

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...23(VS.85).aspx shows how to
assign multiple url’s within one CSS-class

- Is it possible to achieve the same by using multiple selectors ?
