* All events (including submit) bubble correctly per the W3C spec
* All event objects conform to the W3C spec
* All DOM properties and attributes (including event handlers) should be camelCased to be consistent with standard JavaScript style. We intentionally break with the spec here, since the spec is inconsistent.
* `onChange` behaves as you would expect it to: whenever a form field is changed this event is fired rather than inconsistently on blur. We intentionally break from existing browser behavior because `onChange` is a misnomer for its behavior and React relies on this event to react to user input in real time.

## Examples
* React powers all of Instagram.com and many components on Facebook.com, including the commenting interface, ads creation flows, and page insights.
* We've included [a step-by-step tutorial](./09.1-tutorial.md) for creating a comment box widget with React
* [The React starter kit](/react/downloads.md) includes several examples which you can [view online in our GitHub repo](https://github.com/facebook/react/tree/master/examples/)

We always return `false` from the event handler to prevent the browser's default action of submitting the form. (If you prefer, you can instead take the event as an argument and call `preventDefault()` on it – read more about [event handling](event-handling.html).)
`React.autoBind()` is a simple way to ensure that a method is always bound to its component. Inside the method, `this` will be bound to the component instance.
#### Refs
We use the `ref` attribute to assign a name to a child component and `this.refs` to reference the component. We can call `getDOMNode()` on a component to get the native browser DOM element.
