Interface Question

I know you cannot create a new instance of an Interface like you do an object, for example: x = new EventListener();, where EventListener is an Interface. But I've seen in the tutorials and in NetBeans, when adding action events to components, they have the following code as an example:

txtBrowserURI.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {

onLaunchBrowser(null);

}

});

Notice they have "new ActionListener()", which is an Interface. Can this be done since they are implementing it's defined method at the same time?

Thank you.
