Is there anyway to remove an event listener added like this:
element.addEventListener(event, function(){/* do work here */}, false);
Without replacing the element?
There is no way to cleanly remove an event handler unless you stored a reference to the event handler at creation.
I will generally add these to the main object on that page, then you can iterate and cleanly dispose of them when done with that object.
