Javascript: indicate when item in a list clicked?

[Xarzu]

function registerHandlers() {
var as = document.getElementsByTagName('a');
for (var i = 0; i < as.length; i++) {
as[i].onclick = function() {
alert(i);
return true;
}
}
}

And HTML:

In my life, I used the following web search engines:
Yahoo!
AltaVista

Other option for scripting with onclick functionality <pre> function registerHandlers() { var as = document.getElementsByTagName('a'); for (var i = 0; i < as.length; i++) { as[i].addEventListener('onclick', function() { alert(i); return true; }); } } //Call Function Here on window load window.addEventListener('load', function() { registerHandlers(); });</pre>
