John Resigs addEvent Template
/skill level/
/viewed/
This template was written by John Resig. The original can be found at John Resig's addEvent function website.
Webmonkey is using it for its JavaScript Events reference page.
This code is in a wiki. If you have any advances to make to the original tutorial and code, please feel free to contribute.
What it Looks Like
It's a blank page, actually. This is meant to be a template for events you add in the HTML and JavaScript portions of the page.
The Code
<html>
<head>
<script>
// addEvent function by John Resig:
// http://ejohn.org/projects/flexible-javascript-events/
function addEvent( obj, type, fn ) {
if ( obj.attachEvent ) {
obj['e'+type+fn] = fn;
obj[type+fn] = function(){obj['e'+type+fn]( window.event );}
obj.attachEvent( 'on'+type, obj[type+fn] );
} else
obj.addEventListener( type, fn, false );
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- HTML for example event goes here -->
<script>
// Script for example event goes here
