mouseover events do not fire in IE within a frame

1 New Member
I am developing a page which uses DIY drag i.e. I cancel ondragstart, ondragover with window.event.re turnValue=false ; and simply create a drag image from the image I click on (with 60% opacity to make it look "ghosted") then I move it using the body.onmouseove r event positioning my drag image inside a <div> with absolute positioning. I make sure the cursor is not over the div by setting the start position of the drag image well away from the mouse position so that the cursor passes over target elements which fire onmouseover.

The point is that everything works fine in both FF and IE when I test the page. However, when I put the page within a <FRAME> everything still works in FF but not IE where the onmousemove event does not seem to fire when I pass over the target elements. On the other hand I can see that the onmousedown event is working fine. I also see that onmouseover DOES fire however if I pass over my targets without the mouse button down which makes me think it is something to do with IE's drag model. Does anyone have any ideas what may be happening?

I have a page with images that the user can drag from one frame to another. I need them to see a "ghost image" of the image they are dragging, while the original stays put. I use the onmousemove event to keep the ghost image under the mouse pointer. There are three problems: (1) if the ghost image is dragged so it is partially off the edge of the screen, scrollbars appear. This not only looks bad, it can cause the page to autoscroll...

I'm an ASP newbie and have just started experimenting with ASP.NET 2.0 using the VS.NET 2005 Beta. As a starting point I have used the 'Personal WEB site' starter kit.

But what is the correct/best way to do this in ASP.NET ? Any experienced ASP.NET people who would care to...

I upgraded from .NET 2002 to .NET 2003 and found one weird things on the LEAVE / ENTER events within a datagrid. I added handler to each textbox of a datagrid, then handle the ENTER/LEAVE events.

Hi everybody, I nearly get despaired of the fact that the events I chose and, according to the MSDN site, are correct, don't fire reliable in IE6. Is someone able to tell me, which events I can use for the following situation? I have a <select> list with dynamically generated options. Latest when I have changed the (pre-) selected option and loose the focus of the select-list I want to run a function to find out about the newly

Writing an Outlook AddIn with C#. For the user interface within Outlook I'm adding matching pairs of Toolbar buttons and Menu items. All of the buttons and menu items are wired up to send events to the same method (aka delegate?). I use the Tag property within this method to determine what user action is taking place. Very simple: When adding toolbar button: tbButton.Click += new...

If I have a control like say a drop down list and I have some kind of onSelectItem change event, is there a way to temporarily suspend the event handling (without removing the event and then re-attaching it?) while I edit it's contents which would otherwise cause the event to fire? Or is there maybe a way in my event handler to tell if the user triggered it as opposed to the program itself?

Dear All, My question refers to how best to organise my mouse events to correctly and efficiently give the effect I want. On my form I have a panel and that panel contains a number of controls. By setting up the MouseOver and MouseOut events for the panel I am able to change the panel's background while the mouse is over the panel. A very simple effect and one that is straightforward to implement. But, when the mouse cursor goes over...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
