mouseEvent
static
void
mouseEvent
(
target
,
type
,
options
)
Simulates a mouse event on a particular element.
- Parameters:
-
target <HTMLElement>The element to click on. -
type <String>The type of event to fire. This can be any one of the following: click, dblclick, mousedown, mouseup, mouseout, mouseover, and mousemove. -
options <Object>Additional event options (use DOM standard names).
mousemove
static
void
mousemove
(
target
,
options
)
Simulates a mousemove on a particular element.
- Parameters:
-
target <HTMLElement>The element to act on. -
options <Object>Additional event options (use DOM standard names).
mouseout
static
void
mouseout
(
target
,
options
)
Simulates a mouseout event on a particular element. Use "relatedTarget"
on the options object to specify where the mouse moved to.
Quirks: Firefox less than 2.0 doesn't set relatedTarget properly, so
toElement is assigned in its place. IE doesn't allow toElement to be
be assigned, so relatedTarget is assigned in its place. Both of these
concessions allow YAHOO.util.Event.getRelatedTarget() to work correctly
in both browsers.
- Parameters:
-
target <HTMLElement>The element to act on. -
options <Object>Additional event options (use DOM standard names).
mouseover
static
void
mouseover
(
target
,
options
)
Simulates a mouseover event on a particular element. Use "relatedTarget"
on the options object to specify where the mouse moved from.
Quirks: Firefox less than 2.0 doesn't set relatedTarget properly, so
fromElement is assigned in its place. IE doesn't allow fromElement to be
be assigned, so relatedTarget is assigned in its place. Both of these
concessions allow YAHOO.util.Event.getRelatedTarget() to work correctly
in both browsers.
- Parameters:
-
target <HTMLElement>The element to act on. -
options <Object>Additional event options (use DOM standard names).
mouseup
static
void
mouseup
(
target
,
options
)
Simulates a mouseup on a particular element.
- Parameters:
-
target <HTMLElement>The element to act on. -

)
Simulates a key event using the given event information to populate
the generated event object. This method does browser-equalizing
calculations to account for differences in the DOM and IE event models
as well as different browser quirks. Note: keydown causes Safari 2.x to
crash.
- Parameters:
-
target <HTMLElement>The target of the given event. -
type <String>The type of event to fire. This can be any one of the following: keyup, keydown, and keypress. -
bubbles <Boolean>(Optional) Indicates if the event can be bubbled up. DOM Level 3 specifies that all key events bubble by default. The default is true. -
cancelable <Boolean>(Optional) Indicates if the event can be canceled using preventDefault(). DOM Level 3 specifies that all key events can be cancelled. The default is true. -
view <Window>(Optional) The view containing the target. This is typically the window object. The default is window. -
ctrlKey <Boolean>(Optional) Indicates if one of the CTRL keys is pressed while the event is firing. The default is false. -
altKey <Boolean>(Optional) Indicates if one of the ALT keys is pressed while the event is firing. The default is false. -
shiftKey <Boolean>(Optional) Indicates if one of the SHIFT keys is pressed while the event is firing. The default is false. -
metaKey <Boolean>(Optional) Indicates if one of the META keys is pressed while the event is firing. The default is false. -
keyCode <int>(Optional) The code for the key that is in use. The default is 0. -
