This method works the same as org.w3c.dom.events.Document.createEvent(String), in this case the event object created is ready to be dispatched to the remote event listeners registered calling:
EventTarget.dispatchEvent(Event): this method detects whether the submitted event was created by this factory method then redirects to {@link #dispatchEvent(EventTarget,Event)}. eventType parameter specifies thetype of Event interface to be created.
@return the {@link Event} object created
eventType parameter specifies the type of Event interface to be created. If the Event interface specified is supported by the implementation this method will return a new Event of the interface type requested. If the Event is to be dispatched via the dispatchEvent method the appropriate event init method must be called after creation in order to initialize the Event 's values. As an example, a user wishing to synthesize some kind of UIEvent would call createEvent with the parameter "UIEvents". The initUIEvent method could then be called on the newly created UIEvent to set the specific type of UIEvent to be dispatched and set its context information. The createEvent method is used in creating Event s when it is either inconvenient or unnecessary for the user to create an Event themselves. In cases where the implementation provided Event is insufficient, users may supply their own Event implementations for use with the dispatchEvent method.
@return The newly created Event
@exception DOMException NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: Raised if the implementation does not support the type of Event interface requested
