Can multiple event listeners/handlers be added to the same element using Javascript?

I have:

if (window.addEventListener) {
  window.addEventListener('load',video开发者_开发知识库Player,false);
}
else if (window.attachEvent) { 
  window.attachEvent('onload',videoPlayer);
}

and then later I have:

if (window.addEventListener) {
  window.addEventListener('load',somethingelse,false);
} else if (window.attachEvent) { 
  window.attachEvent('onload',somethingelse);
}

Is it preferred/functional to have them all together? Like

if (window.addEventListener) {
  window.addEventListener('load',videoPlayer,false);
  window.addEventListener('load',somethingelse,false);
} else if (window.attachEvent) { 
  window.attachEvent('onload',videoPlayer,false);
  window.attachEvent('onload',somethingelse);
}

You can do how ever you want it to do. They don't have to be together, it depends on the context of the code. Of course, if you can put them together, then you should, as this probably makes the structure of your code more clear (in the sense of "now we are adding all the event handlers").

But sometimes you have to add event listeners dynamically. However, it is unnecessary to test multiple times whether you are dealing with IE or not.

Better would be to abstract from this and test only once which method is available when the page is loaded. Something like this:

var addEventListener = (function() {
    if(document.addEventListener) {
        return function(element, event, handler) {
            element.addEventListener(event, handler, false);
        };
    }
    else {
        return function(element, event, handler) {
            element.attachEvent('on' + event, handler);
        };
    }
}());

This will test once which method to use. Then you can attach events throughout your script with:

addEventListener(window, 'load',videoPlayer);
addEventListener(window, 'load',somethingelse);

I use this function:

function addEvent (obj, type, fn) {
  if (obj.addEventListener) {

    obj.addEventListener(type, fn, false);

  } else if (obj.attachEvent) {

    obj.attachEvent('on' + type, function () {

      return fn.call(obj, window.event);

    });
  }
}

by using a named function and passing that into your event listener, you can avoid having to write the same code over and over again.

// Setup our function to run on various events
var someFunction = function (event) {
    // Do something...
};

// Add our event listeners
window.addEventListener('click', someFunction, false);
window.addEventListener('mouseover', someFunction, false);

addEventListener automatically passes the event object into your function as an
