<descr>
<p>The<code>Event</code>interface is used to provide contextual information about an event to the listener processing the event. An object which implements the<code>Event</code>interface is passed as the parameter to an<code>EventListener</code>. More specific context information is passed to event listeners by deriving additional interfaces from<code>Event</code>which contain information directly relating to the type of event they represent. These derived interfaces are also implemented by the object passed to the event listener.</p>
<p>To create an instance of the<code>Event</code>interface, use the<code>DocumentEvent.createEvent("Event")</code>method call.</p>

<p>The<code>eventType</code>parameter specifies the name of the DOM Events interface to be supported by the created event object, e.g.<code>"Event"</code>,<code>"MouseEvent"</code>,<code>"MutationEvent"</code>and so on. If the<code>Event</code>is to be dispatched via the<code>EventTarget.dispatchEvent()</code>method the appropriate event init method must be called after creation in order to initialize the<code>Event</code>'s values.</p>
<p>As an example, a user wishing to synthesize some kind of<code>UIEvent</code>would invoke<code>DocumentEvent.createEvent("UIEvent")</code>. The<code>UIEvent.initUIEventNS()</code>method could then be called on the newly created<code>UIEvent</code>object to set the specific type of user interface event to be dispatched,<code>{"http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events", "DOMActivate"}</code>for example, and set its context information, e.g.<code>UIEvent.detail</code>in this example.</p>
<p>The<code>createEvent</code>method is used in creating<code>Event</code>s when it is either inconvenient or unnecessary for the user to create an<code>Event</code>themselves. In cases where the implementation provided<code>Event</code>is insufficient, users may supply their own<code>Event</code>implementations for use with the<code>EventTarget.dispatchEvent()</code>method. However, the DOM implementation needs access to the attributes<code>Event.currentTarget</code>and<code>Event.eventPhase</code>to appropriately propagate the event in the DOM tree. Therefore users'<code>Event</code>implementations might need to support the<code>CustomEvent</code>interface for that effect.</p>

<p>For backward compatibility reason, "UIEvents", "MouseEvents", "MutationEvents", and "HTMLEvents" feature names are valid values for the parameter<code>eventType</code>and represent respectively the interfaces "UIEvent", "MouseEvent", "MutationEvent", and "Event".</p>

<descr>
<p>The<code>CustomEvent</code>interface gives access to the attributes<code>Event.currentTarget</code>and<code>Event.eventPhase</code>. It is intended to be used by the DOM Events implementation to access the underlying current target and event phase while dispatching a custom<code>Event</code>in the tree; it is also intended to be implemented, and<emph>not used</emph>, by DOM applications.</p>
<p>The methods contained in this interface are not intended to be used by a DOM application, especially during the dispatch on the<code>Event</code>object. Changing the current target or the current phase may result in unpredictable results of the event flow. The DOM Events implementation should ensure that both methods return the appropriate current target and phase before invoking each event listener on the current target to protect DOM applications from malicious event listeners.</p>
