我想Chris Baker在一个很好的答案中总结了它，但我想添加到addEventListener()中，你也可以使用options参数，它可以让你更好地控制你的事件。例如，如果你只想运行你的事件一次，那么你可以在添加事件时使用{once: true}作为一个选项参数，只调用它一次。

    function greet() {
    console.log("Hello");
    }   
    document.querySelector("button").addEventListener('click', greet, { once: true })

上面的函数只打印“Hello”一次。 此外，如果你想清理你的事件，那么还有removeEventListener()选项。虽然使用addEventListener()有优点，但如果您的目标受众使用Internet Explorer，则此方法可能并不适用于所有情况，您仍然应该小心。你也可以在MDN上读到addEventListener，他们对如何使用它们给出了很好的解释。

使用内联处理程序与内容安全策略不兼容，因此addEventListener方法从这个角度来看更安全。当然，您可以使用unsafe-inline来启用内联处理程序，但是，顾名思义，它并不安全，因为它会带来CSP阻止的大量JavaScript漏洞。

如果你有另外两个函数，你可以看到区别:

var h = document.getElementById('a');
h.onclick = doThing_1;
h.onclick = doThing_2;

h.addEventListener('click', doThing_3);
h.addEventListener('click', doThing_4);

函数2、3和4可以工作，但函数1不行。这是因为addEventListener不会覆盖现有的事件处理程序，而onclick会覆盖任何现有的onclick = fn事件处理程序。

当然，另一个重要的区别是onclick总是可以工作，而addEventListener在版本9之前的ie中不能工作。你可以在IE <9中使用类似的attachEvent(语法略有不同)。

虽然onclick可以在所有浏览器中工作，但addEventListener不能在旧版本的Internet Explorer中工作，后者使用attachEvent代替。

onclick的缺点是只能有一个事件处理程序，而其他两个将触发所有注册的回调。

在这个回答中，我将描述定义DOM事件处理程序的三种方法。

element.addEventListener（）

代码示例:

const element = document.querySelector('a'); 元素。addEventListener('click'， event => event. preventdefault ()， true); <a href="//google.com">试着点击这个链接

addeventlistener()有多个优点:

Allows you to register unlimited events handlers and remove them with element.removeEventListener(). Has useCapture parameter, which indicates whether you'd like to handle event in its capturing or bubbling phase. See: Unable to understand useCapture attribute in addEventListener. Cares about semantics. Basically, it makes registering event handlers more explicit. For a beginner, a function call makes it obvious that something happens, whereas assigning event to some property of DOM element is at least not intuitive. Allows you to separate document structure (HTML) and logic (JavaScript). In tiny web applications it may not seem to matter, but it does matter with any bigger project. It's way much easier to maintain a project which separates structure and logic than a project which doesn't. Eliminates confusion with correct event names. Due to using inline event listeners or assigning event listeners to .onevent properties of DOM elements, lots of inexperienced JavaScript programmers thinks that the event name is for example onclick or onload. on is not a part of event name. Correct event names are click and load, and that's how event names are passed to .addEventListener(). Works in almost all browser. If you still have to support IE <= 8, you can use a polyfill from MDN.

元素。Onevent = function(){}(例如onclick, onload)

代码示例:

const element = document.querySelector('a'); 元素。onclick = event => event. preventdefault (); <a href="//google.com">试着点击这个链接

这是在DOM 0中注册事件处理程序的一种方法。现在不鼓励这样做，因为:

Allows you to register only one event handler. Also removing the assigned handler is not intuitive, because to remove event handler assigned using this method, you have to revert onevent property back to its initial state (i.e. null). Doesn't respond to errors appropriately. For example, if you by mistake assign a string to window.onload, for example: window.onload = "test";, it won't throw any errors. Your code wouldn't work and it would be really hard to find out why. .addEventListener() however, would throw error (at least in Firefox): TypeError: Argument 2 of EventTarget.addEventListener is not an object. Doesn't provide a way to choose if you want to handle event in its capturing or bubbling phase.

内联事件处理程序(onevent HTML属性)

代码示例:

<a href="//google.com" onclick="event.preventDefault();>试着点击这个链接

类似于element。Onevent，现在不鼓励了。除了那个元素的问题。Onevent有，它:

Is a potential security issue, because it makes XSS much more harmful. Nowadays websites should send proper Content-Security-Policy HTTP header to block inline scripts and allow external scripts only from trusted domains. See How does Content Security Policy work? Doesn't separate document structure and logic. If you generate your page with a server-side script, and for example you generate a hundred links, each with the same inline event handler, your code would be much longer than if the event handler was defined only once. That means the client would have to download more content, and in result your website would be slower.

EventTarget.addEventListener()文档(MDN) EventTarget.removeEventListener()文档(MDN) onclick vs addEventListener Dom-events标记wiki

一个元素对每种事件类型只能有一个事件处理程序，但可以有多个事件监听器。

那么，它的实际情况如何呢?

只有最后分配的事件处理程序才会运行:

const button = document.querySelector(".btn")
button.onclick = () => {
  console.log("Hello World");
};
button.onclick = () => {
  console.log("How are you?");
};
button.click() // "How are you?" 

所有事件监听器将被触发:

const button = document.querySelector(".btn")
button.addEventListener("click", event => {
  console.log("Hello World");
})
button.addEventListener("click", event => {
  console.log("How are you?");
})
button.click() 
// "Hello World"
// "How are you?"

IE注:attachEvent不再支持。从IE 11开始，使用addEventListener: docs。
