What values can I pass to the event attribute of the f ajax tag

Question

I am trying to find a list of all the possible values I can pass to the attribute event of the f:ajax tag.

I know that I can also pass function names from my .js files, but what I need just the ones that come with JSF.

I only know about click mouseover and keyup, but I am sure there are more. Just don't know where to find them.

I just input some value that I knew was invalid and here is the output:

'whatToInput' is not a supported event for HtmlPanelGrid. Please specify one of these supported event names: click, dblclick, keydown, keypress, keyup, mousedown, mousemove, mouseout, mouseover, mouseup.

So values you can pass to event are

click
dblclick
keydown
mousedown
mousemove
mouseover
mouseup

The event attribute of  lt f ajax gt  can hold at least all supported DOM events of the HTML element which is been generated by the JSF component in question  An easy way to find them all out is to check all on  attribues of the JSF input component of interest in the JSF tag library documentation and then remove the  on  prefix  For example  the  lt h inputText gt  component which renders  lt input type  text  gt  lists the following on  attributes  of which I ve already removed the  on  prefix so that it ultimately becomes the DOM event type name     blur change click dblclick focus keydown keypress keyup mousedown mousemove mouseout mouseover mouseup select   Additionally  JSF has two more special event names for EditableValueHolder and ActionSource components  the real HTML DOM event being rendered depends on the component type    valueChange  will render as change on text select inputs and as click on radio checkbox inputs  action  will render as click on command links buttons    The above two are the default events for the components in question   Some JSF component libraries have additional customized event names which are generally more specialized kinds of valueChange or action events  such as PrimeFaces  lt p ajax gt  which supports among others tabChange  itemSelect  itemUnselect  dateSelect  page  sort  filter  close  etc depending on the parent  lt p xxx gt  component  You can find them all in the  Ajax Behavior Events  subsection of each component s chapter in PrimeFaces Users Guide
