The proper approach is
   var l = document.createElement("li");
   l.onclick = function(evt) {
     doMyFunction(evt.target);
   };
at least for Mozilla, Opera, Safari, Chrome and IE 9 (in IE 9 mode).
For earlier IE versions you need
   var l = document.createElement("li");
   l.onclick = function(evt) {
     var event = evt || window.event;
     doMyFunction(event.target || event.srcElement);
   };
