Hello again,
another question: How is an Event sent to the DOM?
I cannot find an IDL description of an Event reception function in the
current DOM Level 2 draft. So,
(1) Who does initiate the event flow? Is it the DOMImplementation towards
an Event is directed or is it a Document within a DOMImplementation? If
it's the former, is the event then directed to ALL Documents currently in
the DOMImplementation or only to the one that contains the target?
(2) What is the IDL notation of the method from where the event flow
originates? What parameters does it take? This is probably the Event,
anything else?
(3) In the current docs, it reads:
--snip--
Interface EventTarget
The EventSource interface is implemented by Nodes which can be
targetted by events. The interface allows event listeners to be
registered on the node.
--snip--
Shouldn't this be "The EventTarget interface is implemented..."? Who
implements the (not yet specified) EventSource interface?
Thanks for any hints, Christian.
