Mouse events? #8

Hi there, I wonder if mouse events like onmouseover, onmousedown are already possible with CJAX. If not, do you have plans to add them within 1-2 years? I wonder how easy/difficult it is to create a javascript event though, I can give a try myself if it is not so complicated. Thx.

It is not that complicated, I'll get back to you on this one, though perhaps it can also be accomplished with a plugin,you should experiment with that if you'd like in the mean time.

I did a bit of research on mouse events by looking at how the other events are defined in Cjax, and yes it does not seem to be too complex. Still, it seems that there is one major differences for mouse events compared with other events. Mouse events typically pass arguments into the function assigned to on mouse events(at least you pass a variable called this to mouse events like onMouseOver(this)), while others like click, focus and keyboard events normally invoke functions without argument. Not sure whether this makes implementation of mouse events tricky...

A little more research is needed. Generally, you can pass arguments in Cjax and are converted into JavaScript arguments automatically. I'd have to look into it deeper. I won't know until I look into it deeper.
