The WheelEvent
interface represents events that occur due to the user moving a mouse wheel or similar input device.
Note: This is the standard wheel event interface to use. Old versions of browsers implemented the non-standard and non-cross-browser-compatible MouseWheelEvent
and MouseScrollEvent
interfaces. Use this interface and avoid the non-standard ones.
Don't confuse the wheel
event with the scroll
event:
wheel
event doesn't necessarily dispatch a scroll
event. For example, the element may be unscrollable at all. Zooming actions using the wheel or trackpad also fire wheel
events.scroll
event isn't necessarily triggered by a wheel
event. Elements can also be scrolled by using the keyboard, dragging a scrollbar, or using JavaScript.wheel
event does trigger scrolling, the delta*
values in the wheel
event don't necessarily reflect the content's scrolling direction.WheelEvent()
Creates a WheelEvent
object.
This interface inherits properties from its ancestors, MouseEvent
, UIEvent
, and Event
.
