_attributeTranslations.read.values._getEv fix for IE
Reported by John-David Dalton | June 24th, 2008 @ 05:53 PM | in 1.6.0.3
This is an IE issue:
Garrett Smith pointed out that Element._attributeTranslations.read.values._getEv should not use toString.
This is not entirely possible but we can use Function.prototype.toString.
Also it should return a value only if wrapped in an anonymous function.
Example page: http://www.apple.com/itunes/
javascript:alert($(document.body).readAttribute('onload'))
// Will result in partial string representation of a serialized function. The string begins with ')'.
OR try
$('someDiv').onclick = function() { var foobar = 'somereallylongstringsoyoucanseehowmessedupthisis'; }
alert($('someDiv').readAttribute('onclick')); // will alert "= 'somereallylongstringsoyoucanseehowmessedupthisis';"

Added a patch that doesn't use Function.prototype.toString (for Caja support)

We are going to abandon support for this in 1.6.1 so no need to patch it.
