HTMLElement.ondblclick the handler invoked when the user double-clicks on an element

Availability

JavaScript 1.2; HTML 4.0

Synopsis

<element ondblclick="handler" ... > 

element.ondblclick

Description

The ondblclick property of an HTMLElement object specifies an event handler function that is invoked when the user double-clicks on the element.

The initial value of this property is a function that contains the JavaScript statements specified by the ondblclick attribute of the HTML tag that defined the object. When an event handler function is defined by an HTML attribute, it is executed in the scope of element rather than in the scope of the containing window.

In the Netscape 4 event model, the ondblclick handler function is passed an Event object as an argument. In the IE event model, no argument is passed, but the applicable Event object is available as the event property of the Window object that contains the element.
