Event indicates the event status, such as the element that triggers the event object, the location and status of the mouse, and the key to be pressed.
The event object is valid only when an event occurs.
Some Properties of the event only make sense for specific events. For example, the fromelement and toelement attributes only make sense for onmouseover and onmouseout events.
In the example below, check whether the mouse is clicked on the link. If the Shift key is pressed, the link jump will be canceled.

}
