| DOM 3 Events data | property |
Hide Inherited Public Properties
Show Inherited Public Propertiesdata:DOMString [read-only] | Introduced in: | DOM 3 Events |
Holds the value of the characters generated by the character device. This may be a single Unicode character or a non-empty sequence of Unicode characters [Unicode]. Characters should be normalized as defined by the Unicode normalization form NFC, defined in [UAX #15]. This attribute cannot be null or contain the empty string.

| DOM 3 Events initTextEvent | () | method |
public function initTextEvent(typeArg:DOMString, canBubbleArg:Boolean, cancelableArg:Boolean, viewArg:AbstractView, dataArg:DOMString):void| Introduced in: | DOM 3 Events |
Initializes attributes of a TextEvent object. This method has the same behavior as UIEvent.initUIEvent(). The value of UIEvent.detail remains undefined.
Parameters
typeArg:DOMString — Specifies Event.type, the local name of the event type.
| |
canBubbleArg:Boolean — Specifies Event.bubbles. This parameter overrides the intrinsic bubbling behavior of the event.
| |
cancelableArg:Boolean — Specifies Event.cancelable. This parameter overrides the intrinsic cancelable behavior of the event.
| |
viewArg:AbstractView — Specifies UIEvent.view. This value may be null.
| |
dataArg:DOMString — Specifies TextEvent.data.

| DOM 3 Events textInput | Constant |
public static const textInput:String = textInput| Introduced in: | DOM 3 Events |
One or more characters have been entered.
The characters can originate from a variety of sources. For example, it could be characters resulting from a key being pressed or released on a keyboard device, characters resulting from the processing of an input method editor, or resulting from a voice command. Where a "paste" operation generates a simple sequence of characters, i.e. a text without any structure or style information, this event type should be generated as well.
