onresize doesn't fire under IE, is it a known issue?

[wyx2000]

Please help, I am not sure if I did something wrong, but the following code just doesn;t work well, sometimes it works, but sometimes not

function windowresize(){
window.status="resize";
.....
}

window.attachEvent("onresize", windowresize);

does anyone know how to make it work?

thanks

attachEvent seems to be only a method of document elements. So..

window.onresize = function(){alert('hello')}

It fires it twice though. Never completely worked out why.

I just changed it to window.onresize=windowresize; same issue, sometimes works, sometimes not.

perhaps it is your windowresize function that's at fault.
