What is event capturing?

Can you explain what event capturing is in JavaScript?

Sure! Event capturing is a phase in the event propagation process where events are captured from the root down to the target element.

How does it differ from event bubbling?

In event bubbling, the event starts from the target element and bubbles up to the root, while in capturing, it goes down from the root to the target.

Can you give me an example of how to implement event capturing?

Certainly! You can use the addEventListener method with the third parameter set to true to enable capturing.

What are some use cases for event capturing?

Event capturing can be useful for handling events at a higher level, like preventing default actions before they reach the target element.
