DOM Events FAQ

What does DOM Events help explain?
It explains event targets, capture, target and bubble phases, event options, listener options, and effects such as preventDefault() and stopPropagation().
Can passive event listeners call preventDefault()?
No. Passive event listeners are not allowed to cancel events with event.preventDefault().
What is the difference between stopPropagation and stopImmediatePropagation?
stopPropagation stops the event after all listeners on the current target in the current phase; stopImmediatePropagation stops it immediately so no other listeners are called.
Is something wrong or out of date?
