Event bubbling in Java script

What is an event bubbling in JavaScript ?

  • Event bubbling is a way of event propagation in the HTML DOM API, when an event occurs in an element inside another element, and both elements have registered a handle for that event. With bubbling, the event is first captured and handled by the innermost element and then propagated to outer elements.
  • The execution starts from that event and goes to its parent element. Then the execution passes to its parent element and so on till the body element.
