If the <code>Event</code> interface specified is supported by the implementation this method will return a new <code>Event</code> of the interface type requested. If the <code>Event</code> is to be dispatched via the <code>dispatchEvent</code> method the appropriate event init method must be called after creation in order to initialize the <code>Event</code>'s values. As an example, a user wishing to synthesize some kind of <code>UIEvent</code> would call <code>createEvent</code> with the parameter "UIEvents". The <code>initUIEvent</code> method could then be called on the newly created <code>UIEvent</code> to set the specific type of UIEvent to be dispatched and set its context information.The <code>createEvent</code> method is used in creating <code>Event</code>s when it is either inconvenient or unnecessary for the user to create an <code>Event</code> themselves. In cases where the implementation provided <code>Event</code> is insufficient, users may supply their own <code>Event</code> implementations for use with the <code>dispatchEvent</code> method. <DT><B>Returns:</B><DD>The newly created <code>Event</code> <DT><B>Throws:</B> <DD><CODE><A HREF="../../../../org/w3c/dom/DOMException.html" title="class in org.w3c.dom">DOMException</A></CODE> - NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: Raised if the implementation does not support the type of <code>Event</code> interface requested</DL> </DD> </DL> <!-- ========= END OF CLASS DATA ========= --> <HR> <!-- ======= START OF BOTTOM NAVBAR ====== --> <A NAME="navbar_bottom"><!-- --></A> <A HREF="#skip-navbar_bottom" title="Skip navigation links"></A> <TABLE BORDER="0" WIDTH="100%" CELLPADDING="1" CELLSPACING="0" SUMMARY=""> <TR> <TD COLSPAN=2 BGCOLOR="#EEEEFF" CLASS="NavBarCell1"> <A NAME="navbar_bottom_firstrow"><!-- --></A> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="3" SUMMARY=""> <TR ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top"> <TD BGCOLOR="#EEEEFF" CLASS="NavBarCell1"> <A HREF="../../../../overview-summary.html"><FONT CLASS="NavBarFont1"><B>Overview</B></FONT></A> </TD> <TD BGCOLOR="#EEEEFF" CLASS="NavBarCell1"> <A HREF="package-summary.html"><FONT CLASS="NavBarFont1"><B>Package</B></FONT></A> </TD> <TD BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" CLASS="NavBarCell1Rev"> <FONT CLASS="NavBarFont1Rev"><B>Class</B></FONT> </TD> <TD BGCOLOR="#EEEEFF" CLASS="NavBarCell1"> <A HREF="package-tree.html"><FONT CLASS="NavBarFont1"><B>Tree</B></FONT></A> </TD> <TD BGCOLOR="#EEEEFF" CLASS="NavBarCell1"> <A HREF="../../../../deprecated-list.html"><FONT CLASS="NavBarFont1"><B>Deprecated</B></FONT></A> </TD> <TD BGCOLOR="#EEEEFF" CLASS="NavBarCell1"> <A HREF="../../../../index-all.html"><FONT CLASS="NavBarFont1"><B>Index</B></FONT></A> </TD> <TD BGCOLOR="#EEEEFF" CLASS="NavBarCell1"> <A HREF="../../../../help-doc.html"><FONT CLASS="NavBarFont1"><B>Help</B></FONT></A> </TD> </TR> </TABLE> </TD> <TD ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" ROWSPAN=3><EM> </EM> </TD> </TR> <TR> <TD BGCOLOR="white" CLASS="NavBarCell2"><FONT SIZE="-2"> PREV CLASS <A HREF="../../../../org/w3c/dom/events/Event.html" title="interface in org.w3c.dom.events"><B>NEXT CLASS</B></A></FONT></TD> <TD BGCOLOR="white" CLASS="NavBarCell2"><FONT SIZE="-2"> <A HREF="../../../../index.html?org/w3c/dom/events/DocumentEvent.html" target="_top"><B>FRAMES</B></A> <A HREF="DocumentEvent.html" target="_top"><B>NO FRAMES</B></A> <SCRIPT type="text/javascript"> <!-- if(window==top) { document.writeln('<A HREF="../../../../allclasses-noframe.html"><B>All Classes</B></A>'); } //--> </SCRIPT> <NOSCRIPT> <A HREF="../../../../allclasses-noframe.html"><B>All Classes</B></A> </NOSCRIPT> </FONT></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD VALIGN="top" CLASS="NavBarCell3"><FONT SIZE="-2"> SUMMARY: NESTED | FIELD | CONSTR | <A HREF="#method_summary">METHOD</A></FONT></TD> <TD VALIGN="top" CLASS="NavBarCell3"><FONT SIZE="-2"> DETAIL: FIELD | CONSTR | <A HREF="#method_detail">METHOD</A></FONT></TD> </TR> </TABLE> <A NAME="skip-navbar_bottom"></A> <!-- ======== END OF BOTTOM NAVBAR ======= --> <HR> </BODY> </HTML>
