I've got an ID and I'd like to assign two functions to it. Here's what it currently looks like:

document.getElementById(this.config.dragArea).addEventListener("drop", this._dropFiles, false);
document.getElementById(this.config.dragArea).addEventListener("drop", this._handleFileDrop, false);

How can I rewrite this file without so much duplication?

I tried doing

document.getElementById(this.config.dragArea).addEventListener("drop", this._dropFiles, this._handleFileDrop, false);

and

document.getElementById(this.config.dragArea).addEventListener("drop", function(){this._dropFiles; this._handleFileDrop}, false);

All to no avail :(
