event-outside Module

Outside events are synthetic DOM events that fire when a corresponding native or synthetic DOM event occurs outside a bound element.

The following outside events are pre-defined by this module:

• blur
• change
• click
• dblclick
• focus
• keydown
• keypress
• keyup
• mousedown
• mousemove
• mouseout
• mouseover
• mouseup
• select
• submit

Define new outside events with Y.Event.defineOutside(eventType);. By default, the created synthetic event name will be the name of the event with "outside" appended (e.g. "click" becomes "clickoutside"). If you want a different name for the created Event, pass it as a second argument like so: Y.Event.defineOutside(eventType, "yonderclick").
