YUI.add('node-event-delegate', function(Y) {
10
* Functionality to make the node a delegated event container
12
* @submodule node-event-delegate
16
* <p>Sets up a delegation listener for an event occurring inside the Node.
17
* The delegated event will be verified against a supplied selector or
18
* filtering function to test if the event references at least one node that
19
* should trigger the subscription callback.</p>
21
* <p>Selector string filters will trigger the callback if the event originated
22
* from a node that matches it or is contained in a node that matches it.
23
* Function filters are called for each Node up the parent axis to the
24
* subscribing container node, and receive at each level the Node and the event
25
* object. The function should return true (or a truthy value) if that Node
26
* should trigger the subscription callback. Note, it is possible for filters
27
* to match multiple Nodes for a single event. In this case, the delegate
28
* callback will be executed for each matching Node.</p>
30
* <p>For each matching Node, the callback will be executed with its 'this'
31
* object set to the Node matched by the filter (unless a specific context was
32
* provided during subscription), and the provided event's
33
* <code>currentTarget</code> will also be set to the matching Node. The
34
* containing Node from which the subscription was originally made can be
35
* referenced as <code>e.container</code>.
38
* @param type {String} the event type to delegate
39
* @param fn {Function} the callback function to execute. This function
40
* will be provided the event object for the delegated event.
41
* @param spec {String|Function} a selector that must match the target of the
42
* event or a function to test target and its parents for a match
43
* @param context {Object} optional argument that specifies what 'this' refers to.
44
* @param args* {any} 0..n additional arguments to pass on to the callback function.
45
* These arguments will be added after the event object.
46
* @return {EventHandle} the detach handle
