Methods

_touch

private void _touch ( ev , currentTarget , wrapper )
Adds touch event facade normalization properties to the DOM event facade
Parameters:
ev <Event> the DOM event
currentTarget <HTMLElement> the element the listener was attached to
wrapper <Event.Custom> the custom event wrapper for this DOM event

halt

void halt ( immediate )
Stops the event propagation and prevents the default event behavior.
Parameters:
immediate <boolean> if true additional listeners on the current target will not be executed

preventDefault

void preventDefault ( returnValue )
Prevents the event's default behavior
Parameters:
returnValue <string> sets the returnValue of the event to this value (rather than the default false value). This can be used to add a customized confirmation query to the beforeunload event).

resolve

private void resolve ( )
Returns a wrapped node. Intended to be used on event targets, so it will return the node's parent if the target is a text node. If accessing a property of the node throws an error, this is probably the anonymous div wrapper Gecko adds inside text nodes. This likely will only occur when attempting to access the relatedTarget. In this case, we now return null because the anonymous div is completely useless and we do not know what the related target was because we can't even get to the element's parent node.

stopImmediatePropagation

void stopImmediatePropagation ( )
Stops the propagation to the next bubble target and prevents any additional listeners from being exectued on the current target.

stopPropagation

void stopPropagation ( )
Stops the propagation to the next bubble target
