Event handling is like having a conversation with a website. When you do something like clicking a button or moving your mouse, the website is listening for those actions. When it hears something (an event), it reacts by doing something you told it to do. It’s what makes websites feel alive and respond to what you’re doing.Here’s how event handling works- When a user interacts with a web page, events are generated. For example, clicking a button generates a “click” event. Developers use event listeners to “listen” for specific events. An event listener is a piece of code that’s set up to respond when a particular event occurs.When the event occurs, the associated event handling function is executed. This function contains the instructions for what should happen in response to the event.Event handling enhances the user experience by allowing web applications to respond dynamically to user actions. For example, clicking a button might trigger a pop-up or change the content on the page.
Imagine you’re playing with your toy car, and you press a button to make it run! That button you press is like an event. Event handling is when the toy car knows what to do when you press that button. It listens for your action, like when you press the button, and then it does something cool, like moving forward. So, event handling is like teaching your toys to do fun stuff when you give them a little nudge!
