[Dojo-interest] event.connect and function/method parameters

[James Burke]

You need to use named functions (no anonymous functions, and no
strings of javascript). the following would work:

obj.myHelloMethod = function(){
  this.method('hello');
}

dojo.event.connect(handler, "onclick", obj, "myHelloMethod");
