IE onUnload error,
Reported by Kevin D | August 3rd, 2009 @ 05:34 PM | in 1.0
On exit from a page that is using LivePipe UI in IE an error
will occur, "Object doesn't support this property or method".
Occurs on IE6, IE7, IE8.
I wish LivePipe was versioned, below is the download I got on
8/3/2009:

Using the latest Prototype.js 1.6.1_Rc3 causes this error, apparently there's a conflict w/ the destroyCache() function in livepipe.js and the _destroyCache() function is Prototype.
Commenting out the following line seems to alleviate this
error:
-- livepipe.js (line 196)
if (window.attachEvent) {
//window.attachEvent("onunload", destroyCache);
}
I recommend removing this destroyCache functionality since it appears to be a duplicate of Prototype's function and now conflicts.

- Tag changed from “error, ie, ie6, ie7, ie8, onunload” to “error, event, ie, ie6, ie7, ie8, onunload, prototype”
Happens also with the final 1.6.1 release of Prototype.
Another solution seems to be to change line #228 from
toelement.stopObserving(eventName);
Event.stopObserving(element, eventName);This seems similar to an earlier bug with failing scroll events, if I remember correctly?

- State changed from “new” to “resolved”
destroyCache has been removed in e7afdf8, which should fix this issue.
