public interface DocumentEvent
DocumentEvent interface provides a mechanism by which the 
 user can create an Event of a type supported by the implementation. It is 
 expected that the DocumentEvent interface will be 
 implemented on the same object which implements the Document 
 interface in an implementation which supports the Event model. 
 See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Events Specification.

Event createEvent(java.lang.String eventType) throws DOMException
eventType - The eventType parameter specifies the 
   type of Event interface to be created. If the 
   Event interface specified is supported by the 
   implementation this method will return a new Event of 
   the interface type requested. If the Event is to be 
   dispatched via the dispatchEvent method the 
   appropriate event init method must be called after creation in 
   order to initialize the Event's values. As an example, 
   a user wishing to synthesize some kind of UIEvent 
   would call createEvent with the parameter "UIEvents". 
   The initUIEvent method could then be called on the 
   newly created UIEvent to set the specific type of 
   UIEvent to be dispatched and set its context information.The 
   createEvent method is used in creating 
   Events when it is either inconvenient or unnecessary 
   for the user to create an Event themselves. In cases 
   where the implementation provided Event is 
   insufficient, users may supply their own Event 
   implementations for use with the dispatchEvent method.EventDOMException - NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: Raised if the implementation does not support the 
   type of Event interface requestedCopyright © 1999-2022 The Apache Software Foundation. All Rights Reserved.
