InterestEvent

{{APIRef("Popover API")}}{{SeeCompatTable}}{{non-standard_header}}

The InterestEvent interface represents an event that fires when interest is shown or lost on an interest invoker.

This is the event object for the {{domxref("HTMLElement.interest_event", "interest")}} and {{domxref("HTMLElement.loseinterest_event", "loseinterest")}} events, which fire on the target element when interest is shown or lost, respectively.
