Trying to use an ID tag listener

[Nullstate]

Hi, I have a very non-standard need to be able to click on a menu item that merely has an id tag and a text tag. The id tag is used by another program that is using an id listener for when that tag is triggered. In regular HTML it looks like this:

Code: Select all

<a id="show11">Home page settings</a>

This triggers a listener which then loads a modal DHTML window. I can't show you an example because it is behind a login, but could put a sample together if needed.
This is what I'm trying:

Code: Select all

aI("text=Home Page settings;id=show11;");

When I hover over the menu item, I see

Code: Select all

javascript: void(0);

Do you know how I might make this work?
Thank you,

Hi,

I will post to Milonic, since I think this is beyond my knowledge, but a sample would be very useful making it much easier to trouble shoot.

Unfortunately, the code calls to a Yahoo (YUI) library. All I can say is it works in standard HTML link. Here is the Yahoo page for the addListener method of the YAHOO.util.Event class:
