Question

In the following code, where would I use preventDefault? I have been testing it to make it work but have not found a good way to cancel the default submit action. Which function needs to be capture the event object?

Here is the code:

f_name = 'someFunc' ;
f_args(1,2,3) ;

if(element.addEventListener) {
element.addEventListener('submit',(function(name,args,element) {
    return function() {
        window[name].apply(element,args) ;
    }
})(f_name,f_args,element)
,false) ; }

Answer 1

f_name = 'someFunc';
f_args = [1, 2, 3];
if (element.addEventListener) {
    element.addEventListener('submit', (function (name, args, element) {
        return function (e) {
            // here 
            e.preventDefault();
            window[name].apply(element, args);
        };
    })(f_name, f_args, element), false);
}
