property of the WindowEventHandlers
mixin is the event handler for processing languagechange
events.
These events are received by the object implementing this interface, usually a Window
, an HTMLBodyElement
, or an HTMLIFrameElement
. Such an event is sent by the browser to inform that the preferred languages list has been updated. The list is accessible via Navigator.languages
.
object.onlanguagechange = function;
function
is the name of a user-defined function, without the ()
suffix or any parameters, or an anonymous function declaration, such as function(event) {...}
. An event handler always has one single parameter, containing the event, here of type Event
. window.onlanguagechange = function(event) { console.log('languagechange event detected!'); };
