DOM Attributes

These are both read-only and ignore their arguments.

view

The view object associated with the event.

detail

A number that's meant to specify some info about the event. For instance, for the DOMActivate event, 1 is a normal activation, and 2 is a hyperactivation (whatever that means). A click event on an element triggers a DOMActivate event, simply copying the "detail" attribute from the click event.

Other Methods

initUIEvent ( $name, $propagates_up, $cancellable, $view, $detail )

This initialises the event object. See "initEvent" in HTML::DOM::Event for more detail.

init ( ... )

Alternative to "initUIEvent" that's easier to use:

  init $event
      type => $type,
      propagates_up => 1,
      cancellable => 1,
      view => $view,
      detail => 1,
  ;
