event-capturing

The addEventListener DOM method supports a third optional, boolean parameter (useCapture) to indicate whether the function should use event bubbling or event capturing as propagation method. In this article the difference is nicely shown (click on the examples & view code). From other questions on SO and blog posts, I concluded event bubbling was preferred mostly because IE8- didn't support it. Suppose I'm only required to support IE9+, in what situation would event capturing be necessary or preferred over event bubbling? In other words, in what situation would it be better to let the events

We are trying to repeat the same thing that was done is this plugin: https://github.com/mapsplugin/cordova-plugin-googlemaps/blob/master/README.md (How does this plugin work) but using react-native + mapbox gl(native). The idea is simple: webview and mapview are "siblings", webview is above mapview and part of webview is transparent and mapview is shown under it. We would like any touch events that occur in this transparent area not to be captured by webview and bubble/whatever to mapview so you can touch/drag/zoom map. Simply said: we want part (not all of it) of webview not to capture events

I have an interesting question about event capturing , bubbling and jQuery.on() . I have recently learned more about the difference between event capturing and event bubbling and how the two flow differently in and out of the child-parent elements within the DOM. So to add an event listener with "event capture direction" i would use: element.addEventListener("click", myFunction, true); and to add an event listener with "event bubble direction" i would use: element.addEventListener("click", myFunction, false); This is all good and well, but what I want to know is when using jquery.on() to add

I'm looking to write a .Net Windows application that will capture how a user uses another running application. The simplest form of this would be recording which buttons were clicked or menu items were opened. Capturing the button text or menu text would be enough. I know this can be done by listening for events but was unsure how far this stretched. In Windows are you able to listen to another applications events or are they hidden from other applications? If so, are there any .Net libraries I can use or open source projects to catch these events? Taking this further, turn these into generic
