"Nope, that's correct behavior. There is no capture phase on the target,
but then there is no bubble phase on the target either so then it should output nothing as well... ok i'm abit confused i do understand that there is the capture phase, target phase, then bubble phase but the way it works is that you can set the addEventListener to be set only in the bubble phase by default or capture phase. So, to only be at the target phase, you have to use the bubble phase and use e.stopPropagation(); So bsically the target phase is recognized as part of the bubble phase. --- In [email protected], "Alex Harui" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Nope, that's correct behavior.
