Questions tagged [event-binding]

Event binding connects an event handler to a specific event.

Event binding is the process of connecting (binding) an event-handler to an event listener.

The event handler is usually inline code or a function call, and is executed when an event happens to an object listening for the event.

In this code:

<button onclick="handleClick();">

onclick is the event listener and handleClick() is the event handler. The code binds handleClick to a click event on the button.
