Events in PhoneGap/Cordova

The PhoneGap/Cordova framework allows us to listen to quite few different events, you can attach your event handler to event by using code like this

document.addEventListener("deviceready", function(){
 console.log("Inside document.addeventlistener -deviceready");
}, false);
document.addEventListener("pause", function(){
 console.log("Inside document.addeventlistener - pause");
}, false);
document.addEventListener("resume", function(){
 console.log("Inside document.addeventlistener - resume");
}, false);
document.addEventListener("online", function(){
 console.log("Inside document.addeventlistener - online");
}, false);
document.addEventListener("offline", function(){
 console.log("Inside document.addeventlistener - offline");
}, false);
document.addEventListener("backbutton", function(){
 console.log("Inside document.addeventlistener - backbutton");
}, false);
document.addEventListener("menubutton", function(){
 console.log("Inside document.addeventlistener - menubutton");
}, false);
document.addEventListener("searchbutton", function(){
 console.log("Inside document.addeventlistener - searchbutton");
}, false);
document.addEventListener("startcallbutton", function(){
 console.log("Inside document.addeventlistener - startcallbutton");
}, false);
document.addEventListener("endcallbutton", function(){
 console.log("Inside document.addeventlistener - endcallbutton");
}, false);
document.addEventListener("volumeupbutton", function(){
 console.log("Inside document.addeventlistener - volumeupbutton");
}, false);
document.addEventListener("volumedownbutton", function(){
 console.log("Inside document.addeventlistener - volumedownbutton");
}, false);

The Worklight mobile browser simulator makes testing event quite easy, one issue is that the deviceready event does not get called in the mobile browser simulator and it also does not let us invoke that event manually. But the wlCommonInit() can play the same role and it works quite ok in worklight
