I never heard of it as "event driven programming", but I think what it should refer to is the MVC pattern. The "events" for web applications are of such a homogenuous nature that it has no worth to think of it as "event driven". One needs a good understanding of MVC and the Doc/Controller model (and serialization of state data) for building fine complex webapps whose overall logic should keep being understandable.

On the opposite, if you've just a plain simple page to display, MVC is definitely way too heavy.
Very true.
