You can find out which events have been attached to a DOM object via Firebug since version 1.12, where the getEventListeners(target) (English) :

Open Firebug for example with the F12

Click on the console ;

Type in the command line by passing a DOM object as a parameter.

Example to collect events attached to tag <body/> :

getEventListeners(document.body);

The result will be something like:

Notes:

It does not seem to work with jQuery objects, you should make use of "normal" DOM objects.

You should expect the page to be fully loaded to ensure the DOM has been fully read and is ready to be searched by getEventListeners() .
