Not really. You might be able to find the mouse position by tracking
mousemove events, and the find the element at that point and try
to call a "click" method on the element, if it has one.

Why would you want it? Hopefully not to bypass popup filters :)

Interesting exploit, but no. I am working with a tricky graphic-app
that is tracking the mouse-cursor, and needed it to do something. I
got it to work now. :)

using javascript closures to create singletons to ensure the survival of a reference to an HTML block

by: Jake Barnes | last post by:

Using javascript closures to create singletons to ensure the survival of a reference to an HTML block when removeChild() may remove the last reference to the block and thus destory the block is what I'm hoping to achieve. I've never before had to use Javascript closures, but now I do, so I'm making an effort to understand them. I've been giving this essay a re-read: http://jibbering.com/faq/faq_notes/closures.html

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
