A DOM event, for example, mouse or keyboard event, provides access to the event data and methods to change the event behavior.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`java.util.Optional<EventTarget>`	`currentTarget()` Returns an `Optional` that contains the event target that represents the element to which the event handler has been attached, otherwise an empty `Optional`.
`boolean`	`isBubbles()` Returns `true` if the event bubbles up through the DOM, otherwise false.
`boolean`	`isCancelable()` Returns `true` when the event can be canceled, and therefore prevented as if the event never happened.
`EventPhase`	`phase()` Returns the event phase.
`void`	`preventDefault()` Informs the browser that if the event is not explicitly handled, its default action should not be performed.
`void`	`stopPropagation()` Informs the browser that the event should not propagate in the capturing and bubbling phases.
`java.util.Optional<EventTarget>`	`target()` Returns an `Optional` that contains the element on which the event occurred if it exists, otherwise an empty `Optional`.
`EventType`	`type()` Returns the event type.

  - type
```
EventType type()
```
    Returns the event type.
  - target
```
java.util.Optional<EventTarget> target()
```
    Returns an Optional that contains the element on which the event occurred if it exists, otherwise an empty Optional.
  - currentTarget
```
java.util.Optional<EventTarget> currentTarget()
```
    Returns an Optional that contains the event target that represents the element to which the event handler has been attached, otherwise an empty Optional.
  - phase
```
EventPhase phase()
```
    Returns the event phase.
  - isBubbles
```
boolean isBubbles()
```
    Returns true if the event bubbles up through the DOM, otherwise false.
  - isCancelable
```
boolean isCancelable()
```
    Returns true when the event can be canceled, and therefore prevented as if the event never happened. In other case, returns false.
  - preventDefault
```
void preventDefault()
```
    Informs the browser that if the event is not explicitly handled, its default action should not be performed.
    For example, if you invoke this method for the event of the EventType.CLICK type, dispatching this event to the checkbox element as the event currentTarget will not toggle this checkbox.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the event is closed
  - stopPropagation
```
void stopPropagation()
```
    Informs the browser that the event should not propagate in the capturing and bubbling phases.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the event is closed
