Nikolai Kotchetkov commented on CB-3786: ---------------------------------------- Filip you're right. I've also linked another compatibility issue. The one linked is more useful as it binds a scope for listener automatically when used in browser. > Event's 'target' and 'currentTarget' are null for monkeypatched events > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CB-3786 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-3786 > Project: Apache Cordova > Issue Type: Bug > Components: CordovaJS > Affects Versions: 2.8.0 > Environment: All platforms > Reporter: Nikolai Kotchetkov > Assignee: Filip Maj > Priority: Minor > Labels: javascript > > When subscribing to special Cordova events like 'backbutton', 'target' and > 'currentTarget' properties of fired event objects are null. > {code:javascript} > document.addEventListener("backbutton", function(e){ > console.log("BACK: " + e.type + " event on " + e.currentTarget + > "(" + e.target + ")"); > }); > {code} > produces result: > {noformat} > 06-13 12:35:22.841: I/Web Console(14539): BACK: backbutton event on > null(null) at file:///android_asset/www/index.html:71 > {noformat} > I guess it's not a major problem for everyone but my own library depends on > currentTarget property and it may pop somwhere else. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
