Hi there,

If a Web Worker defines its onmessage handler like so:

function onmessage(event) {
  ...
}

It will not fire.

However, if it defines:

onmessage = function(event) {
  ...
}

Both types work in Gecko.

A demo is here: http://jonathanleighton.com/tests/onmessage/. In Gecko I see:

on message function got message: zomg
on message attribute got message: zomg

In WebKit I see:

on message attribute got message: zomg

Thanks,
Jon
