+<p id="Summary">{{APIRef("DOM Events")}}</p>
+
+<p>The <code><strong>MouseEvent</strong></code> interface represents events that occur due to the user interacting with a pointing device (such as a mouse). Common events using this interface include {{event("click")}}, {{event("dblclick")}}, {{event("mouseup")}}, {{event("mousedown")}}.</p>
+
+<p><code>MouseEvent</code> derives from {{domxref("UIEvent")}}, which in turn derives from {{domxref("Event")}}. Though the {{domxref("MouseEvent.initMouseEvent()")}} method is kept for backward compatibility, creating of a <code>MouseEvent</code> object should be done using the {{domxref("MouseEvent.MouseEvent", "MouseEvent()")}} constructor.</p>
+
+<p>Several more specific events derivate from <code>MouseEvent</code>: {{domxref("WheelEvent")}} and {{domxref("DragEvent")}}.</p>
