this.$events is null

[offwhite]

While using the ready event I am getting a null exception in MSIE 6.

The error is on line 1291.

var c = this.$events[event.type];

When I go into the Visual Studio debugger the watch shows all of the variables are defined so it does not explain why the error is being raised. I plan to check for null and return from the method to avoid the exception.

Can you provide some more details concerning this? Do you have a sample page that we can look at, where this occurs?

I have the same problem and seems here is one guy who have found the solution: ​http://www.nabble.com/IE6-ASP.NET-error-from-document.onload:-'this.events'-is-null-t2356326.html

I experiencing this problem when testing page with jQuery from the HtmlUnit, page load when jQuery is present on the page.

With the move to DOM Level 2 event handlers conflicts with .Net events are now resolved. Fixed in the latest SVN which will soon be 1.1.3.
