Hi, is it possible to capture a click event on a scrollbar? I have some code where i am observing the click and mousedown events on the document. However, it seems that when I click on the scrollbar, the event is not captured. This leads me to believe that the scrollbars aren't really part of the document. (Assumption :-)) Is this a correct assumption? What is the right way to do this so that the behaviour is consistent across all major browsers?
sample code
document.observe('click', function(evt){
//do something
//blah blah blah
});
Thanks
