Note: This release is in preview. Features described here don’t become generally available until the latest general availability date that Salesforce announces for this release. Before then, and where features are noted as beta, pilot, or developer preview, we can’t guarantee general availability within any particular time frame or at all. Make your purchase decisions only on the basis of generally available products and features.

Events

Although you can attach an onclick event to any type of element, for accessibility, consider only applying this event to elements that are actionable in HTML by default, such as <a>, <button>, or <input> tags in component markup. You can use an onclick event on a <div> tag to prevent event bubbling of a click.
