Other Mouse and Keyboard Events

Lecture 162:- Other Mouse and Keyboard Events

In addition to the click event, there are many other mouse and keyboard events that can be handled using JavaScript. Some of the commonly used ones include:

1. mouseover: triggered when the mouse pointer moves over an element
2. mouseout: triggered when the mouse pointer moves out of an element
3. mousemove: triggered when the mouse pointer moves within an element
4. mousedown: triggered when the mouse button is pressed down on an element
5. mouseup: triggered when the mouse button is released on an element
6. keydown: triggered when a keyboard key is pressed down
7. keyup: triggered when a keyboard key is released
8. keypress: triggered when a keyboard key is pressed and released

To handle these events, we can use event listeners in JavaScript. For example, to handle the mouseover event on an element with the ID "myElement", we can write:

javascriptCopy code

var myElement = document.getElementById("myElement"); myElement.addEventListener("mouseover", function() {  // handle the mouseover event here });

Similarly, we can handle other mouse and keyboard events by replacing "mouseover" with the appropriate event name.
