First version does not show me x and y and get I get following error: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'pageX' of undefined
The Second version works but is very similar coded, can't find the problem.
FIRST VERSION (NOT WORKING)
<form name ="show">
<input type="text" name="mouseXField" value="0" size="6">Mouse X Position<br>
<input type="text" name="mouseYField" value="0" size="6">Mouse Y Position<br>
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">
var mie = (navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer") ? true : false;
if (!mie) {
document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEMOVE);
document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN);
}
document.onmousemove = mousePos();
document.onmousedown = mouseClicked();
var mouseClick;
var keyClicked;
var mouseX = 0;
var mouseY = 0;
function mousePos (e) {
if (!mie) {
mouseX = e.pageX;
mouseY = e.pageY;
}
else
mouseX = event.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft;
mouseY = event.clientX + document.body.scrollTop;
document.show.mouseXField.value = mouseX;
document.show.mouseYField.value = mouseY;
return true;
}
</script>
SECOND VERSION (WORKING)
<form name="Show">
<input type="text" name="MouseX" value="0" size="4"> X<br>
<input type="text" name="MouseY" value="0" size="4"> Y<br>
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">
var IE = document.all?true:false
if (!IE) document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEMOVE)
document.onmousemove = getMouseXY;
var tempX = 0
var tempY = 0
function getMouseXY(e) {
if (IE) {
tempX = event.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft
tempY = event.clientY + document.body.scrollTop
}
else
{
tempX = e.pageX
tempY = e.pageY
}
document.Show.MouseX.value = tempX
document.Show.MouseY.value = tempY
return true
}
</script>
On a first sight:
clientX
should beclientY
and missing{}
in yourelse
:Also you need to send the event to the function,
check this out: http://jsfiddle.net/NLsdZ/1/
Also, use of
captureEvents
is deprecated, you should useaddEventListener
instead. More info here: http://forums.asp.net/t/1576872.aspxI had also noticed you are not onloading below, or at least stating that you are.
Should be like/or finally worked for me as:
