| title: Onclick Event Attribute
 | |
| ---
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Onclick Event Attribute
 | |
| 
 | |
| When the element is clicked fires a event. 
 | |
| 
 | |
| It works just like the *onclick method* or `addEventListener('click')` to the element.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```html
 | |
| <element onclick="event"></element>
 | |
| ```
 | |
| > `event` can be a JavaScript function or you can write raw JavaScript
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Examples
 | |
| 
 | |
| Changing the color of a ```<p>``` element when clicked
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```html
 | |
| <p id="text" onclick="redify()">Change my color</p>
 | |
| 
 | |
| <script>
 | |
| function redify(){
 | |
|   let text = document.querySelector('#text');
 | |
|   text.style.color = "red";
 | |
| }
 | |
| </script>
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Using raw JavaScript onclick attribute:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```html
 | |
| <button onclick="alert('Hello')">Hello World</button>
 | |
| ```
 | |
