events.addDelegateListener

  • Edit on GitHub

events.addDelegateListener(eventType, selector, handler)

Parameters

  1. eventType {String}:

    The type of the event to virtually bind to delegates

  2. selector {String}:

    A CSS selector that matches all intended delegates

  3. handler {function(event)}:

    The function to call when the event is dispatched

    Add an event as in [can-util/dom/events/events.addEventListener addEventListener] but with a selector matching child nodes ("delegates") for which the event should fire.

    Delegate events are limited to firing in the bubble phase.
