.SH "Detailed Description"
.PP 
Introduced in \fBDOM\fP Level 2. 

The \fBEventListener\fP interface is the primary method for handling events. Users implement the \fBEventListener\fP interface and register their listener on an EventTarget using the AddEventListener method. The users should also remove their \fBEventListener\fP from its EventTarget after they have completed using the listener.
.PP
When a \fBNode\fP is copied using the cloneNode method the EventListeners attached to the source \fBNode\fP are not attached to the copied \fBNode\fP. If the user wishes the same EventListeners to be added to the newly created copy the user must add them manually.
