I m using onscroll="javascript:setcoords()" in the body tag. When i validate my page with w3c validor for html 4.0, it generates following error.

"there is no attribute "ONSCROLL" ".

Can somebody tell me how to avoid this error so that current functionality doesnot disturb.

Hi amir_iiui,

Try using addEventListener to tie this event to the body instead. onscroll is not a valid attribute of the body tag.
