Abstract
This chapter covers event handlers, including event handler binding (or registration) and event handler execution. jQuery provides convenience methods to register event handlers for system-generated and user interaction events and provides a mechanism to pass information between elements, which initiated the event and event handlers. Event handlers are inline (anonymous) or named functions that are executed when an event is triggered by the browser or by user interaction.
