DOM-Events werden gesendet, um Code von interessanten Dingen, welche stattgefunden haben, anzuzeigen. Jedes Event wird durch ein Objekt dargestellt, das auf der {{domxref ("Event")}}-Schnittstelle basiert und möglicherweise zusätzliche benutzerdefinierte Felder und/oder Funktionen enthält, die dazu benutzt werden, um zusätzliche Informationen darüber zu erhalten, was genau passiert ist. Events können alles repräsentieren, angefangen von einfachen Benutzerinteraktionen bis hin zu automatisierten Benachrichtigungen über Abläufe, die im Rendering-Modell stattgefunden haben.

Dieser Artikel zeigt eine Liste von Events, die gesendet werden können; einige sind Standard-Events, definiert in offiziellen Spezifikationen, während andere solche Events sind, die intern von bestimmten Browsern verwendet werden. Beispielswese werden Mozilla-spezifische Events aufgelistet, so dass add-ons sie verwenden werden können, um mit dem Browser zu interagieren.

Standard Events

Diese Ereignisse werden in offiziellen Web-Spezifikationen definiert und sollten in allen Browsern gemeinsam sein. Jedes Ereignis wird zusammen mit der Schnittstelle aufgelistet, die das Objekt darstellt, das an die Empfänger des Ereignisses gesendet wird (so können Sie Informationen darüber finden, welche Daten mit jedem Ereignis bereitgestellt werden) sowie einen Link zu der Spezifikation oder Spezifikationen, die das Ereignis definieren.
