Dispatches a synthetic event to this node. removeEventListener( )
Removes an event listener from the set of listeners of this Document
node.
Description
In DOM implementations that support events (i.e., those that support
the "Events" feature), all nodes in the document tree
implement this interface and maintain a set or list of event listener
functions for each node. The addEventListener( )
and removeEventListener( ) methods allow listener
functions to be added and removed from this set.

This fourth edition of the definitive reference to
JavaScript, a scripting language that can be embedded
directly in web pages, covers the latest version of the
language, JavaScript 1.5, as supported by Netscape 6 and
Internet Explorer 6. The book also provides complete
coverage of the W3C DOM standard (Level 1 and Level 2),
while retaining material on the legacy Level 0 DOM for
backward compatibility.
