Event Listeners

addEventListener and removeEventListener work just as they do in regular JavaScript. However, addEventListener in FBJS does not support the useCapture parameter. In addition, Facebook provides the following methods:

listEventListeners(eventName)

Returns an array of identifiers for all events that have been added to this event.

purgeEventListeners(eventName)

Removes all event listeners for the specified event.
