Are the standards and Opera correct and I'm wrong?...
Hi,
The below code shows a simple button with some javascript executing on it.
This code is tested and works in IE6, NS6, Mozilla 0.99 but doesnt work in Opera.
So my question is, is Opera correctly and you not supposed to execute Javascript through an event attribute this way (as part of the standard), or am I correct and Opera 6 is at fault? I cant find anything on W3s site saying that I'm incorrect.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" value="Click Me!" onclick="javascript:tmp=prompt('Enter Something','');if (tmp==null){alert('You clicked Cancel');}else{alert('You typed ' + tmp);}">
</body>
</html>

I'm gonna guess it has something to do with the preceding "javascript:" text - the examples @w3.org don't have this, and only show javascript done this way - the VBScript or Tcl examples use full fledged <script> tags.

I don't know, and I haven't checked, but I always declare variables. You may not have to. Maybe "var tmp=prompt" instead of "tmp=prompt".
Just throwing ideas.

I tried both those suggestions already and they don't work. The only solution I could find was to put the onclick stuff in a function. Must be an Opera bug

). Why don't you try asking on the Opera forums? Although I've been there once, I can't seem to find the link from their page 
If you find it let me know
