JQuery :: Constrain / Restrict Mouse Pointer To A Selector?
Jul 8, 2009
Is it possible with jQuery, or JavaScript for that matter, to trap the mouse in a div or other tag so that it can only move around in it. I'd like this for a modal window so thta the user knows that they must do something in the window first before carrying on.
With the following code I can change the mouse pointer. However, if you click in Mozilla (with IE it works perfect) on 'Show hourglass' the mouse pointer changes only if you move the mouse at least on pixel.
<html> <body> <script type = 'text/javascript'> function show_hourglass() { document.getElementById("my_href1").style.cursor = "wait"; document.getElementById("my_href2").style.cursor = "wait"; }
I'm making a webpage for a little embedded device with a touch screen. I don't want the mouse pointer to be visible until the user clicks on a link in which case the mouse pointer should change to an hour glass until the new page is displayed (the device is rather slow so the user needs to get some feedback while waiting). code...
This properly hides the cursor after the first page is loaded but it doesn't display the hour glass when I click on the link. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
I would like to change cursor to pointer when mouse is over li element and it works until mouse gets over input or label element. I want to have pointer alse when mouse is over label or input in li elment.
I would want to show a div (the information about the song) when the visitor hover on a cover art on a radio website but this div overlap the cover art with an opacity of 0.7
You can see an example here: [url]
The problem is that when the information div appears, the mouse pointer isn't on the cover art div anymore for the navigator so the information div disappears, and so on... resulting in a flash effect.
I am trying to redevelop firefox addon, to give it more funcionality. I found JS file where all the functions are and started to edit it.
What I want to achieve is to get target of an anchor under mouse pointer (when mouse pointer is over anchor, I right click and call addon from context menu).
For example when I have anchor which HTML code is:
<a href="somewehere.com/place">place</a>
when I right click on this code and call my addon I would like to alert its href (somewehere.com/place)
I wrote a function:
function ff() { var current_target=this.href; alert(current_target); }

I have a JavaScript routine that runs on a timer and updates the position of a background image using the CSS background-position property. In Internet Explorer, it changes the mouse pointer to an hourglass when it refreshes the screen, and this is really annoying since it happens on the timer, about every 100 milliseconds or so. Is there anything I can do about this?
Is there a way of displaying the id of the element under the pointer ?
Please dont ask why I need it, but I do, i found tools that needs installation that provide the same funcitonality. However, I would like to turn on this feature using a flag in my url. Something like debug=1.
1. I want to have 2 things on my page: an unordered list of links at left, and a grid of images at right. Each item in the list is represented by an image in the grid. This is how it should work: when you mouse over an image, the text link at left changes color. So, I hardly know any jQuery, but I suspect that you need to dynamically insert a css class selector into the <li> for that list item. How in the world do I do this?
2. I am using this plugin: jQuery cycle lite. Is there a way to make the images appear in random order, rather than in the same, fixed order?
Is it possible to do an 'on click' event that changes a css selector, then an 'off click' that switches it back? I am working on a touch screen app and need to replicate a css hover state.
When the number of menus (including a menu and its submenus) reach a particular number, then after that rest of the menus are not getting displayed. Is there any settings available to restrict number of menus in superfish?
I m having trouble restricting an action to a single image. I am trying to make the background fade to full opacity on hover, and have that working like I want to. The problem is that when I hover one image, ALL the images fade to full opacity. Obviously it would be nice to only have the one that is being hovered over. I am sure it is just a simple thing in the code but I just can't figure out what it is.
I have a link with a return false;I have the style (cursor: pointer) set in the CSS and also triedsetting it in Javascript.When I click on the link, the hand cursor goes to the default arrow.(I'm guessing it's the browsers default behavior to change it back tothe arrow when a link is clicked.)
I'm trying to find an example of a country selector (which also provides a state selector if USA is chosen) then you cvan select the city, any samples out there?
Is there a trigger in JQuery that occurs when the user either:1 - clicks the left mouse button and moves the mouse upOR2 - clicks the left mouse button and moves the mouse down?mouseup() and mousedown() are only for clicking the button. I need a trigger that includes both the left mouse click and movement of the mouse up or down occurring simutaneously
