preventDefault won't stop the other handlers from getting the event, it just warns them not to do what they'd normally do, and they can ignore and do stuff anyway. And if the event isn't cancelable, preventDefault has no effect. But that won't change the order in which the handlers get called. You either have to change the order in which the handlers get added or use the priority parameter of addEventListener to affect the order.

Hi everyone, I am using a third-party MDI framework which has default event handlers for many window events. The problem is I want my custom code to execute in response to few window events but only after the default handler defined by the framework has been executed because otherwise some of my changes get overriden by the framework's default event handlers. I don't want to use preventDefault() because I also want those default event handlers to execute. Thanks...
