Field Summary

Fields inherited from interface org.w3c.dom.events.Event
`AT_TARGET, BUBBLING_PHASE, CAPTURING_PHASE`

Method Summary
`int` | `getDetail()` Specifies some detail information about the `Event`, depending on the type of event.
`org.w3c.dom.views.AbstractView` | `getView()` The `view` attribute identifies the `AbstractView` from which the event was generated.
`void` | `initUIEvent(String typeArg, boolean canBubbleArg, boolean cancelableArg, org.w3c.dom.views.AbstractView viewArg, int detailArg)` The `initUIEvent` method is used to initialize the value of a `UIEvent` created through the `DocumentEvent` interface.

Method Detail

### getView

    org.w3c.dom.views.AbstractView getView()

  The `view` attribute identifies the `AbstractView` from which the event was generated.

### getDetail

    int getDetail()

  Specifies some detail information about the `Event`, depending on the type of event.

### initUIEvent

    void initUIEvent(String typeArg,
                     boolean canBubbleArg,
                     boolean cancelableArg,
                     org.w3c.dom.views.AbstractView viewArg,
                     int detailArg)

  The `initUIEvent` method is used to initialize the value of a `UIEvent` created through the `DocumentEvent` interface. This method may only be called before the `UIEvent` has been dispatched via the `dispatchEvent` method, though it may be called multiple times during that phase if necessary. If called multiple times, the final invocation takes precedence.

  Parameters:
    `typeArg` - Specifies the event type.
    `canBubbleArg` - Specifies whether or not the event can bubble.
    `cancelableArg` - Specifies whether or not the event's default action can be prevented.
    `viewArg` - Specifies the `Event`'s `AbstractView`.
    `detailArg` - Specifies the `Event`'s detail.
