myButton.addEventListener() to register an event listener,
myButton is the value of the currentTarget. |
items | An Array of objects with
information about the items affected by the event.
The contents of this field depend on the event kind;
for details see the items property |
kind | The kind of event. The valid values are defined in the CollectionEventKind class as constants. |
location | Location within the target collection
of the item(s) specified in the items property. |
oldLocation | the previous location in the collection
of the item specified in the items property. |
