public abstract class DocumentEvent

createEvent

public Event createEvent(String eventType)

The DocumentEvent interface provides a mechanism by which the user can create an Event of a type supported by the implementation. It is expected that the DocumentEvent interface will be implemented on the same object which implements the Document interface in an implementation which supports the Event model.

Parameters:

eventType

-

The eventType parameter specifies the type of Event interface to be created. If the Event interface specified is supported by the implementation this method will return a new Event of the interface type requested. If the Event is to be dispatched via the dispatchEvent method the appropriate event init method must be called after creation in order to initialize the Event's values. As an example, a user wishing to synthesize some kind of UIEvent would call createEvent with the parameter "UIEvents". The initUIEvent method could then be called on the newly created (

Return:

Event - The newly created Event.

Throws:

DOMException NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: Raised if the implementation does not support the type of Event interface requested.
