JavaScript HTML DOM Events

❮ Previous Next ❯

HTML DOM allows JavaScript to react to HTML events:

Mouse Over Me
Click Me

Reacting to Events

A JavaScript can be executed when an event occurs, like when a user clicks on an HTML element.

To execute code when a user clicks on an element, add JavaScript code to an HTML event attribute:

onclick= JavaScript

Examples of HTML events:

  • When a user clicks the mouse
  • When a web page has loaded
  • When an image has been loaded
  • When the mouse moves over an element
  • When an input field is changed
  • When an HTML form is submitted
  • When a user strokes a key

In this example, the content of the <h1> element is changed when a user clicks on it:

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<h1 onclick="this.innerHTML = 'Ooops!'">Click on this text!</h1>

</body>
</html>

In this example, a function is called from the event handler:

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<h1 onclick="changeText(this)">Click on this text!</h1>

<script>
function changeText(id) {
  id.innerHTML = "Ooops!";
}
</script>

</body>
</html>

HTML Event Attributes

To assign events to HTML elements you can use event attributes.

Assign Events Using the HTML DOM

The HTML DOM allows you to assign events to HTML elements using JavaScript:

Example

document.getElementById("myBtn").onclick = displayDate;
</script>

In the example above, a function named displayDate is assigned to an HTML element with the id="myBtn".

The function will be executed when the button is clicked.

The onload and onunload Events

The onload and onunload events are triggered when the user enters or leaves the page.

The onload event can be used to check the visitor's browser type and browser version, and load the proper version of the web page based on the information.

The onload and onunload events can be used to deal with cookies.

Example

<body onload="checkCookies()">
