removeEventListener

The removeEventListener() method removes any Event Listener using their eventID

Returns EventId

document.removeEventListener(eventName: String, EventId: EventId): void

Examples

local eventid = document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded",function(timeTaken)
    -- DOMContentLoaded gives you the time taken to load the DOM which uses os.clock
    -- This only runs ONCE and it's when the page is first loaded.
    print("DOM Took " .. tostring(timeTaken) .. " to load!"
end)
document.removeEventListener(eventid)
local eventid = document.addEventListener("customEvent",function(arg1)
    print("Custom Event Loaded!", arg1)
end)
document.removeEventListener(eventid)

-- Event will dispatch but no print will occur
document.dispatchEvent("customEvent", "test")
