An EXCELLENT tutorial on event basics can be found at: |

================================================================= |
You can access the following properties thru the event handler: |
Available Properties |
altKey Retrieves a value that indicates the state of the ALT key. |
altLeft Retrieves a value that indicates the state of the left ALT key. |
clientX Sets or retrieves the x-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the client area of the window, excluding window decorations and scroll bars. |
clientY Sets or retrieves the y-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the client area of the window, excluding window decorations and scroll bars. |
ctrlLeft Sets or retrieves the state of the left CTRL key. |
offsetX Sets or retrieves the x-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the object firing the event. |
offsetY Sets or retrieves the y-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the object firing the event. |
screenX Sets or retrieves the x-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the user's screen. |
screenY Sets or retrieves the y-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the user's screen. |
shiftLeft Retrieves the state of the left SHIFT key. |
srcElement Sets or retrieves the object that fired the event. |
type Sets or retrieves the event name from the event object. |
x Sets or retrieves the x-coordinate (in pixels) of the mouse pointer's offset from the closest relatively positioned parent element of the element that fired the event. |
y Sets or retrieves the y-coordinate (in pixels) of the mouse pointer's offset from the closest relatively positioned parent element of the element that fired the event. |
--> |
<script type="text/javascript"> |
function writeAvailableProperties() { |
document.write(event.altkey + " - altKey Retrieves a value that indicates the state of the ALT key.<br />"); |
document.write(event.clientX + " - clientX Sets or retrieves the x-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the client area of the window, excluding window decorations and scroll bars.<br /><br />Use back button to return to page."); |
} |
function doSomething(e) { |
if (!e) var e = window.event |
// e refers to the event |
document.write(e.clientY + " - clientY Sets or retrieves the y-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the client area of the window, excluding window decorations and scroll bars.<br /><br />Use back button to return to page."); |
} |
</script> |
</head> |
<body> |
<input type="text" |
name="txtState" |
value="State" |
onblur="alert(event.srcElement.name + '\n' + event.srcElement.type)" /><br /> |
<input type="text" |
name="txtCountry" |
value="Country" |
onblur="writeAvailableProperties()" /><br /> |
<input type="text" |
name="txtZip" |
value="Zip" |
onblur="alert(event.srcElement.name + '\n' + event.srcElement.type)" /> |
<input id="Button1" type="button" value="button" /> |
<script type="text/javascript"> |
// This is the "traditional" and recommended technique for registering an event |
// handler because it allows you to separate structure from behavior; the |
// "inline" method of registering an event within xhtml tags is not |
// the recommended approach because it blurs structure and behavior. |
// For complete explanation, please see the following excellent article: |
// http://www.digital-web.com/articles/separating_behavior_and_structure_2/ |
// |
// Note: Using getElementById so registering event will work in FireFox |
// |
var myButton = document.getElementById("Button1") |
myButton.onblur = doSomething; |
if (myButton.captureEvents) myButton.captureEvents(Event.BLUR); |
</script> |
</body> |
