An event which takes place in the DOM.
Properties Jump to heading
Jump to headingbubbles: boolean
Returns true or false depending on how event was initialized. True if event goes through its target's ancestors in reverse tree order, and false otherwise.
Jump to headingcancelBubble: boolean
Jump to headingcancelable: boolean
Returns true or false depending on how event was initialized. Its return value does not always carry meaning, but true can indicate that part of the operation during which event was dispatched, can be canceled by invoking the preventDefault() method.
Jump to headingcomposed: boolean
Returns true or false depending on how event was initialized. True if event invokes listeners past a ShadowRoot node that is the root of its target, and false otherwise.
Jump to headingcurrentTarget: EventTarget | null
Returns the object whose event listener's callback is currently being invoked.
Jump to headingdefaultPrevented: boolean
Returns true if preventDefault() was invoked successfully to indicate cancellation, and false otherwise.
Jump to headingeventPhase: number
Returns the event's phase, which is one of NONE, CAPTURING_PHASE, AT_TARGET, and BUBBLING_PHASE.
Jump to headingisTrusted: boolean
Returns true if event was dispatched by the user agent, and false otherwise.
Jump to headingreturnValue: boolean
Jump to headingsrcElement: EventTarget | null
Jump to headingtarget: EventTarget | null
Returns the object to which event is dispatched (its target).
Jump to headingtimeStamp: number
Returns the event's timestamp as the number of milliseconds measured relative to the time origin.
Jump to headingtype: string
Returns the type of event, e.g. "click", "hashchange", or "submit".
Jump to headingNONE: 0
Jump to headingCAPTURING_PHASE: 1
Jump to headingAT_TARGET: 2
Jump to headingBUBBLING_PHASE: 3
Methods Jump to heading
Returns the invocation target objects of event's path (objects on which listeners will be invoked), except for any nodes in shadow trees of which the shadow root's mode is "closed" that are not reachable from event's currentTarget.
Jump to headinginitEvent(type: string,bubbles?: boolean,cancelable?: boolean,): void
Jump to headingpreventDefault(): void
If invoked when the cancelable attribute value is true, and while executing a listener for the event with passive set to false, signals to the operation that caused event to be dispatched that it needs to be canceled.
Invoking this method prevents event from reaching any registered event listeners after the current one finishes running and, when dispatched in a tree, also prevents event from reaching any other objects.
Jump to headingstopPropagation(): void
When dispatched in a tree, invoking this method prevents event from reaching any objects other than the current object.
