Listening to the events that are happening in a page?

I'm trying to recognize the events that are happening in a page. For example, the page is loaded is one event then the user clicks a link it is another event or open a dropdown box and so on, so here I'm looking for all these events? any idea on how I can monitor the events that are happening in a html page?

JQuery and Prototype have excellent cross-browser solutions for that.

JQ click example:

$('#foo').bind('click', function() {
  alert('User clicked on "foo."');
});

JQ DOM-ready example (page has loaded):

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('#foo').bind('click', function(event) {
    alert('The mouse cursor is at ('
      + event.pageX + ', ' + event.pageY + ')');
  });
});
