javascript closure not working

[perlmonk]

Hi All

I tried the following code

  window.onload = function() 
     {
       var list = ['abc', 'xyz'] ; // id's from links
       for(var i = 0; i < list.length; i++ )
        {
          var id = list[i] ;
          document.getElementById(list[i]).onclick = function() { alert("link with id=" + id) }
        }
     }

Also

document.getElementById(list[i]).onclick = function() { alert("link with id=" + list[i]) }

doesn't work

So, when I click on the link with id 'abc' I get the alert showing "link with id=xyz"
For some reason the closure only memorizes the last values! (and also doesn't remember list)


Any ideas ?

thnx in advance
