Possible To Make Mouse Be At A Given Position On Screen Using Script?
Nov 3, 2009
Is it possible to make the mouse be at a given position on the screen using javascript for example i am writing a element resize script and i would like to have it so when u click on the resize button the cursor moves to the bottom right corner of the element for the starting position
I want to do something but here is an example. (That explain much more) : Here you have a toolbar called content-header. It change from position:static to position:fixed if it leave the screen. (whan you scroll down) I want to do the same thing with my first <tr> : That way on a my long table you will never loose the title of each columns. I tried to copy this website by using his stuff but it didn't work.
Is it possible to do this? Say I want to find out where on the screen a specific div is, and i want to know the values of the left and top properties. Can i find this out? If so, how?
I have following problem: I get screen coordinates something (which might not be a mouse) and have to convert them relative to an element on a page.
Inside a page it's simple: use the offsets to the parent elements. On the other side the start are the window.screenX and window.screenY coordinates.
The only problem now is how to find out the offset from the page to the window, i.e. the size of the toolbars and stuff? What might be interesting are the mozInnerScreenX/Y attributes of an window. But these are only present in firefox, obviously, which is not sufficient.
A hack would be a calibration page which uses a mouse event to calculate the missing offset using evt.pageX/Y and evt.screenX/Y. But this might not work, since a mouse might not be present.
When datepicker is used on buttons positioned at the bottom of thescreen it only displays part of the datepicker popup. The default position should be bottom, but if it reaches beyond the end of the screen the position should be above/top. Does anyone know how to control this ?Current code:
// set DatePicker defaults $.datepicker.setDefaults({ dateFormat: 'dd/mm/yy',
How to make a footer for a web that has an absolute position and automatic detect lower part of the screen. Whenever the visitor scroll the page, the footer still there and remain to it's position. Just like a header that has {position: absolute} in css.
I need a javascript that will print out the X and Y of the mouse on the screen as I move the mouse and keep up to date. The X and the Y must also be stored in a variable. (Trying to increase my knowledge of javascript so that I can make my web sites better and my experiments are all in making games)
I am using one button at the bottom of the page. When i click on that button the page refreshes and goes to the top of the page.But i want when i click on that button the page refreshes and mouse pointer goes to the bottom of the page where the button consists. i have found that it is possible in javascript through set the coordinates for mouse pointer.
I've been working on a javascript photo gallery on my talent agency's website. I'm running into a bit of trouble with two things... First off, i would like it that when the mouse is removed from the thumbnail, that the image the mouse was last on would remain on screen but the thumbnail wouldnt change back. Also, i cant figure out how to make it that when an image is being displayed, the photographer and makeup artist information could also be seen under the picture.
Here's something I'm working on: for a click on a given element, I want to be able capture the x/y coordinates of the mouse -- that is, the mouse coordinates relative to the top left corner of said element.
I have a really professional conspiracy movie site and I use tons of layers and an external scroll bar assembly. I would like to put the various sections into MS Iframes and in order to clean up the page but I find that the iframes interfere with the getting the mouse coords from the screen which is essential in moving the scroll bar around.
My test html is given below. With the iframe hidden the mouse coords are obtainable. With the iframe visible things get buggy.
Where the "background_foriframe.html" is just a html file with a background layer using a "DIV" tag. Code:
I have a bunch of links that when you mouseover should bring up a window with extra information. The links look like
Code: <a href="#" onMouseOver="popInfo(this)" onMouseOut="unpopInfo(this)">Link Text</a> Here's the code for the tw functions, popInfo and unpopInfo:
Code: function popInfo(x) { var posx = 0; var posy = 0; if (!e) var e = window.event; if (e.pageX || e.pageY) { posx = e.pageX; posy = e.pageY; } else if (e.clientX || e.clientY) { posx = e.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft; posy = e.clientY + document.body.scrollTop; } var infoBox = x.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[0]; infoBox.className = 'infoBoxHover' infoBox.style.left = posx; infoBox.style.top = posy; } function unpopInfo(x) { var infoBox = x.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[0]; infoBox.className = 'infoBox' } This is working perfectly in IE and Opera but in firefox it's saying that window.event has no properties. I don't know much about javascript so I don't know where to start. Some help would be great.
I have some anchor tags that have a popup appear when they are clicked.
<a href="javascriptpenlrChild()"><img src="../images/icon_calendar.gif"/></a> function openChild() { childWindow=open('http://localhost/property_search/smallcal.aspx','win1','resizable=yes,width=185,height=150,status=0,toolbar=0,scrollbars=0,menubar=0' );[code]....
These buttons appear at random heights on the page.I would like to set the popup to appear right by the mouse pointer when they click the button but don't have any idea how to do these.
I've been trying to find a jQuery that will have buttons float from left to right onto a page, then grow a little / shrink back to normal size on mouseover.
I've found lots of things that are predominantly for drop down menus - that's not really it.
Using my (limited) javascript skills I've modified a script that moves buttons or divs onto a page but it looks very dull. Powerpoint-like even.
Here's a link: [URL]
All the buttons need to do is jump to another page - the background image does not need to change at all / slide out or anything like that.
So basically what I'm looking for is a pointer to a jQuery thingy [!] that will do the above while looking a lot snazzier
I have an iframe with some javascipt that gets the mouse x and y position like this:
//inside the iframe's onmousemove call back funciton xMousePos = window.event.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft; yMousePos = window.event.clientY + document.body.scrollTop;
This gets the x and y position inside the iframe. But what I want is the x and y position of the parent window, not the screen like screenX. Is there any easy way to get parentX and parentY or to get the offset x and y of the iframe relitive to the parent from inside the iframe?
I have a web page that renders a table with about 300 rows in it, which means vertical scrolling. At the end of the page there's a hidden div element sitting. Each row in the table contains a button which needs to call a javascript which should position the hidden div right next to the clicked button. I've tried a lot of different approaches that I've found on google, but all of them only position the div around the top area of the page. If I scroll down a ways and click the button, I have to scroll back up to the top of the page to find the div.
The primary target is users using IE8, but of course, if there's a cross-browser solution for this problem, that would be super!
I am facing a problem in getting mouse position when I click on a link, specialy the Y coordinate of the mouse position. I am using this code :
[color=Sienna]if (document.layers) { // Netscape document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEMOVE); document. } else if (document.all) { // Internet Explorer document. } else if (document.getElementById) { // Netcsape 6 document. } // Global variables xMousePos = 0; // Horizontal position of the mouse on the screen yMousePos = 0; // Vertical position of the mouse on the screen xMousePosMax = 0; // Width of the page yMousePosMax = 0; // Height of the page
It works fine for mouse move and displayes correct mouse pos in status bar.
But when on mouse click i try to get the position it return the xMousePos good, but yMousePos it return is related to the browser client area in IE rather than the my document ( html ).
So when i try to place a div their it is placed near top of the document bcoz it ignores the scrolling information. or the
document.body.scrollLeft
document.body.scrollTop is always 0( zero ) as i debug it. Code:
I have a popup menu that i want to come up after holding down the mouse for a certain time period. however it doesn't seem to be accepting the e.pageX and e.pageY values that i'm assigning to it's left and top styles.
Here's my code (i'm using jquery):
Code:
I tried adding the parameter "e" into every parent function of MenuAppear() but that didn't solve it.
