The Route node establishes an event handlig mechanism between the identified source and evet type to the specified destination. All events handled with Route shall be DOM events, but they need not be DOM-defined events - custom events may be used. The event source is specified by the value of the id attribute (see Future Notes). The event name (or type) must also be specified (DOM requirement).
The destination node/tag is specified by the value of the id attribute (see Future Notes), along with the field in the node to receive the event.
Future note
- Allow the source to specify any unique node via class, ID, and node name.
- Allow source to specify a collection of nodes. An event handler would be created for each one
- Allow desination to specify any unique node
- Allow destination to specify a collection of nodes. A listener would be established for each destination node.
- Allow developer to specify a custom event handler (JavaScript code) that processes the event prior to passing it to the node's field's event handler.
