Medium
0.0% Acceptance
In this lab, you will practice removing event listeners from HTML elements using removeEventListener
method. This is an important concept to understand, as it can help prevent memory leaks in your JavaScript applications.
You will create an HTML file with a button element with id btn
and a paragraph element with id paragraph
. Initially, when the user clicks on the button, the paragraph should display a counter value. After 5 clicks, you have to remove the event listener from the button element and when the user clicks on the button again, nothing should happen.
Concepts to understand
- Adding event listeners using
addEventListener
- Removing event listeners using
removeEventListener
- Event Listener methods should be named functions to maintain reference
