The oncancel property of the GlobalEventHandlers mixin is the EventHandler for processing cancel events.
The cancel event is raised when the user wants to cancel the given element.
This event handler prevents the element from bubbling, so any parent handlers are not notified of the event.
Syntax
element.oncancel = functionRef;
