Event.currentTarget

表示事件物件在傳遞過程中，目前在處理事件之監聽器所在的元素節點。event.currentTarget 屬性總會指向現在正處理該事件的事件監聽器所註冊的 DOM 物件，而 event.target 屬性則是永遠指向觸發事件的 DOM 物件。

範例

event.currentTarget is interesting to use when attaching the same event handler to several elements.

function hide(e){
  e.currentTarget.style.visibility = "hidden";
  // When this function is used as an event handler: this === e.currentTarget
}

var ps = document.getElementsByTagName('p');

for(var i = 0; i < ps.length; i++){
  ps[i].addEventListener('click', hide, false);
}

// click around and make paragraphs disappear

[1] On Internet Explorer 6 through 8, the event model is different. Event listeners are attached with the non-standard EventTarget.attachEvent method. In this model, there is no equivalent to event.currentTarget and this is the global object. One solution to emulate the event.currentTarget feature is to wrap your handler in a function calling the handler using Function.prototype.call with the element as a first argument. This way, this will be the expected value.
