Not sure if I'd implement it as a standalone Class myself though.Also, I would avoid the timer if DOMAttrModified is available:if (document.implementation.hasFeature('MutationEvents','2.0')){ // subscribe to DOMAttrModified } else { timer }There're many ways to approach this problem. Another would be to create a custom MooTools event. Nice idea. Not sure if I’d implement it as a standalone Class myself though.

Also, I would avoid the timer if DOMAttrModified is available:

if (document.implementation.hasFeature(‘MutationEvents’,’2.0′)){
// subscribe to DOMAttrModified
} else {
timer
}

Do you think this could be combined with native Javascript getter/setters for browsers that support them? I understand getters and setters are not very standard or supported, but it would be cool to use them when possible, right? https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Core_JavaScript_1.5_Guide/Creating_New_Objects/Defining_Getters_and_Setters Nice idea, David.
