What is the main difference between stopPropagation and stopImmediatePropagation?

  • stopPropagation stops the event from further propagation but allows other event listeners on the same element to execute.
  • stopPropagation prevents default behavior in addition to stopping propagation.
  • stopImmediatePropagation stops further propagation and prevents other event listeners on the same element from executing.
  • stopPropagation is used for touch events, while stopImmediatePropagation is used for mouse events.
stopPropagation and stopImmediatePropagation are methods used to control event propagation. The main difference is that stopPropagation stops further propagation but allows other event listeners on the same element to execute. In contrast, stopImmediatePropagation not only stops further propagation but also prevents other event listeners on the same element from executing, even if they are in the same event phase. This can be useful when you want to ensure that certain listeners are not triggered.
