JavaScript Events - Introduction to events
HTML Events
- An HTML event can be something the browser does, or something a user does.
- Here are some examples of HTML events:
- An HTML web page has finished loading
- An HTML input field was changed
- An HTML button was clicked
- Often, when events happen, you may want to do something.
- JavaScript lets you execute code when events are detected.
- HTML allows event handler attributes, with JavaScript code, to be added to HTML elements.
