The first goal is the design of a generic event system which allows registration of event handlers, describes event flow through a tree structure, and provides basic contextual information for each event. Additionally, the specification will provide standard modules of events for user interface control and document mutation notifications, including defined contextual information for each of these event modules.</p> <p>The second goal of the event model is to provide a common subset of the current event systems used in <termref def='dt-DOM-Level-0'>DOM Level 0</termref> browsers. This is intended to foster interoperability of existing scripts and content. It is not expected that this goal will be met with full backwards compatibility. However, the specification attempts to achieve this when possible.</p> <p>The following sections of the Event Model specification define both the specification for the DOM Event Model and a number of conformant event modules designed for use within the model. The Event Model consists of the two sections on event propagation and event listener registration and the Event interface.</p> <p> A DOM application may use the <code>hasFeature(feature, version)</code> method of the <code>DOMImplementation</code> interface with parameter values "Events" and "2.0" (respectively) to determine whether or not the event module is supported by the implementation. In order to fully support this module, an implementation must also support the "Core" feature defined in the DOM Level 2 Core specification <bibref ref="DOMCore"/>. Please, refer to additional information about <xspecref href='&core.latest.url;/introduction.html#ID-Conformance'>conformance</xspecref> in the DOM Level 2 Core specification <bibref ref="DOMCore"/>. </p> <p> Each event module describes its own feature string in the event module listing. </p> <div3 id="Events-overview-terminology"> <head>Terminology</head> <glist> <gitem> <label>UI events</label> <def><p>User interface events.

The methods of event capture and event bubbling, along with various event listener registration techniques, allow the event to then be handled in a number of ways. It can be handled locally at the <code> EventTarget</code> level or centrally from an <code>EventTarget</code> higher in the document tree.</p> <div3 id="Events-flow-basic"> <head>Basic event flow</head> <p>Each event has an <code>EventTarget</code> toward which the event is directed by the DOM implementation. This <code>EventTarget</code> is specified in the <code>Event</code>'s <code>target</code> attribute. When the event reaches the target, any event listeners registered on the <code>EventTarget</code> are triggered. Although all <code>EventListeners</code> on the <code>EventTarget</code> are guaranteed to be triggered by any event which is received by that <code> EventTarget</code>, no specification is made as to the order in which they will receive the event with regards to the other <code>EventListeners</code> on the <code>EventTarget</code>. If neither event capture or event bubbling are in use for that particular event, the event flow process will complete after all listeners have been triggered. If event capture or event bubbling is in use, the event flow will be modified as described in the sections below.</p> <p>Any exceptions thrown inside an <code>EventListener</code> will not stop propagation of the event. It will continue processing any additional <code>EventListener</code> in the described manner.</p> <p>It is expected that actions taken by <code>EventListener</code>s may cause additional events to fire. Additional events should be handled in a synchronous manner and may cause reentrancy into the event model.</p> </div3> <div3 id="Events-flow-capture"> <head>Event capture</head> <p>Event capture is the process by which an EventListener registered on an <termref def="dt-ancestor">ancestor</termref> of the event's target can intercept events of a given type before they are received by the event's target. Capture operates from the top of the tree, generally the <code>Document</code>, downward, making it the symmetrical opposite of bubbling which is described below. The chain of <code>EventTarget</code>s from the top of the tree to the event's target is determined before the initial dispatch of the event. If modifications occur to the tree during event processing, event flow will proceed based on the initial state of the tree.</p> <p>An <code>EventListener</code> being registered on an <code>EventTarget</code> may choose to have that <code>EventListener</code> capture events by specifying the <code>useCapture</code> parameter of the <code>addEventListener</code> method to be <code>true</code>. Thereafter, when an event of the given type is dispatched toward a <termref def="dt-descendant">descendant</termref> of the capturing object, the event will trigger any capturing event listeners of the appropriate type which exist in the direct line between the top of the document and the event's target. This downward propagation continues until the event's target is reached. A capturing <code>EventListener</code> will not be triggered by events dispatched directly to the <code>EventTarget</code> upon which it is registered.</p> <p>If the capturing <code>EventListener</code> wishes to prevent further processing of the event from occurring it may call the <code>stopProgagation</code> method of the <code>Event</code> interface. This will prevent further dispatch of the event, although additional <code>EventListeners</code> registered at the same hierarchy level will still receive the event. Once an event's <code>stopPropagation</code> method has been called, further calls to that method have no additional effect. If no additional capturers exist and <code>stopPropagation</code> has not been called, the event triggers the appropriate <code>EventListeners</code> on the target itself.</p> <p>Although event capture is similar to the delegation based event model in which all interested parties register their listeners directly on the target about which they wish to receive notifications, it is different in two important respects. First, event capture only allows interception of events which are targeted at <termref def="dt-descendant">descendants</termref> of the capturing <code>EventTarget</code>. It does not allow interception of events targeted to the capturer's <termref def="dt-ancestor">ancestors</termref>, its <termref def="dt-sibling">siblings</termref>, or its sibling's <termref def="dt-descendant">descendants</termref>. Secondly, event capture is not specified for a single <code>EventTarget</code>, it is specified for a specific type of event. Once specified, event capture intercepts all events of the specified type targeted toward any of the capturer's <termref def="dt-descendant">descendants</termref>.</p> </div3> <div3 id="Events-flow-bubbling"> <head>Event bubbling</head> <p>Events which are designated as bubbling will initially proceed with the same event flow as non-bubbling events. The event is dispatched to its target <code>EventTarget</code> and any event listeners found there are triggered. Bubbling events will then trigger any additional event listeners found by following the <code>EventTarget</code>'s parent chain upward, checking for any event listeners registered on each successive <code>EventTarget</code>. This upward propagation will continue up to and including the <code>Document</code>. <code>EventListener</code>s registered as capturers will not be triggered during this phase. The chain of <code>EventTarget</code>s from the event target to the top of the tree is determined before the initial dispatch of the event. If modifications occur to the tree during event processing, event flow will proceed based on the initial state of the tree.</p> <p>Any event handler may choose to prevent further event propagation by calling the <code>stopPropagation</code> method of the <code>Event</code> interface. If any <code>EventListener</code> calls this method, all additional <code>EventListeners</code> on the current <code>EventTarget</code> will be triggered but bubbling will cease at that level. Only one call to <code>stopPropagation</code> is required to prevent further bubbling.</p> </div3> <div3 id="Events-flow-cancelation"> <head>Event cancelation</head> <p>Some events are specified as cancelable. For these events, the DOM implementation generally has a default action associated with the event. An example of this is a hyperlink in a web browser. When the user clicks on the hyperlink the default action is generally to active that hyperlink. Before processing these events, the implementation must check for event listeners registered to receive the event and dispatch the event to those listeners. These listeners then have the option of canceling the implementation's default action or allowing the default action to proceed. In the case of the hyperlink in the browser, canceling the action would have the result of not activating the hyperlink.</p> <p>Cancelation is accomplished by calling the <code>Event</code>'s <code> preventDefault</code> method. If one or more <code>EventListeners</code> call <code> preventDefault</code> during any phase of event flow the default action will be canceled.</p> <p>Different implementations will specify their own default actions, if any, associated with each event. The DOM does not attempt to specify these actions.</p> </div3> </div2> <div2 id="Events-registration"> <head>Event listener registration</head> <div3 id="Events-Registration-interfaces"> <head>Event registration interfaces</head> <definitions> &events-eventtarget; &events-eventlistener; </definitions> </div3> <div3 id="Events-registration-html40"> <head>Interaction with HTML 4.0 event listeners</head> <p>In HTML 4.0, event listeners were specified as attributes of an element. As such, registration of a second event listener of the same type would replace the first listener. The DOM Event Model allows registration of multiple event listeners on a single <code>EventTarget</code>. To achieve this, event listeners are no longer stored as attribute values.</p> <p>In order to achieve compatibility with HTML 4.0, implementors may view the setting of attributes which represent event handlers as the creation and registration of an <code> EventListener</code> on the <code>EventTarget</code>. The value of <code>useCapture</code> defaults to <code>false</code>. This <code>EventListener</code> behaves in the same manner as any other <code>EventListeners</code> which may be registered on the <code>EventTarget</code>. If the attribute representing the event listener is changed, this may be viewed as the removal of the previously registered <code>EventListener</code> and the registration of a new one. No technique is provided to allow HTML 4.0 event listeners access to the context information defined for each event.</p> </div3> </div2> <div2 id="Events-interface"> <head>Event interface</head> <definitions> &events-event; &events-eventexception; </definitions> </div2> <div2 id="Events-document"> <head>DocumentEvent interface</head> <definitions> &events-documentevent; </definitions> </div2> <div2 id="Events-eventgroupings"> <head>Event module definitions</head> <p>The DOM Level 2 Event Model allows a DOM implementation to support multiple modules of events. The model has been designed to allow addition of new event modules as is required. The DOM will not attempt to define all possible events. For purposes of interoperability, the DOM will define a module of user interface events including lower level device dependent events, a module of UI logical events, and a module of document mutation events. Any new event types defined by third parties must not begin with any upper, lower, or mixed case version of the string "DOM". This prefix is reserved for future DOM event modules. It is also strongly recommended that third parties adding their own events use their own prefix to avoid confusion and lessen the probability of conflicts with other new events. </p> <div3 id="Events-eventgroupings-uievents"> <head>User Interface event types</head> <p>The User Interface event module is composed of events listed in HTML 4.0 and additional events which are supported in <termref def='dt-DOM-Level-0'>DOM Level 0</termref> browsers.</p> <p> A DOM application may use the <code>hasFeature(feature, version)</code> method of the <code>DOMImplementation</code> interface with parameter values "UIEvents" and "2.0" (respectively) to determine whether or not the User Interface event module is supported by the implementation.
