This doesnt seem to work i used the tagName in IE Attribute to 
determine the type of Object that was passed by the event handler.
Unfortunately in NS4/6 this seems to work for all objects apart from 
the A tag which i need to grab the events on.
.type is set for some Elements but not for all.
i think i will check the objects for the presence of their typical 
properties to determine what raised the event
