Vicky,
     One way is to take advantage of event bubbling.  Search this 
FAQTS for JavaScript event bubbling to find out more on this subject.  
The other way is that you could create collections of the tags you're 
interested in and loop through that collection to attach your event 
handler to all of the objects in the collection.  For example:
var colLinks = document.getElementsByTagName("A");
var x, len = colLinks.length;
for (x=0; x<len; ++x)
{
    colLinks[x].onclick = myhandler;
}
Take care,
