Visual Event is an open source Javascript bookmarklet which provides debugging information about events that have been attached to DOM elements.


Solution 2:

There's no way to enumerate listeners added with addEventListener in Firefox core (bug 448602).

There may be workarounds, but I'm not aware of any. See also How to find event listeners on a DOM node when debugging or from the JavaScript code?

Solution 3:

From Firefox 33 this feature (Display which elements have listeners attached) is added to inspector in . You can see 'ev' or 'event' icon next to elements which have event listeners. Clicking that displays a listing of all the event listeners bound to the element.
