Dear All,
I am working on a piece of Javascript code that needs to detect a
mouse-click, shift-click and control-click. The code is not my own -
it is a part of a much larger suite of routines. The code as it stands
does not work in Firefox, and I suspect that the task of feature
detection (which currently depends on browser detection) can be
carried out better. The result should be that opcode is set to 0,1 or
2 dor click, control-click and shift-click. I post the entire function
below.
Thanks
Paul
function click(e)
{
if(!e)
e=window.event;
var mX=null;
var mY=null;
var opcode = 0; //0=zoom in, 1=zoom to extent (ctrl), 2=pan
(shift)
var op=navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf('oper a')!=-1;
var ie = document.all;
if (ie || op)
{
mX = e.offsetX;
mY = e.offsetY;
if (e.ctrlKey)
opcode = 1;
if (e.shiftKey)
{
opcode += 2;
}
}
else
{
mX = e.layerX;
mY = e.layerY;
if (e.modifiers & Event.CONTROL_MASK)
{
opcode = 1;
}
if (e.modifiers & Event.SHIFT_MASK)
{
opcode += 2;
}
}
if (opcode == 0)
{
this.zoom(mX,mY);
}
else if (opcode == 1)
{
this.zoomOut(mX,mY);
}
else if (opcode == 2)
{
this.pan(mX,mY);
}
else if (opcode == 3)
{
this.queryUI(mX,mY);
}

Hi Paul.
Mouse/kb/event routines are always iffy cross-platform; test this if
interested.

I'm not surprised it doesn't work in Firefox. At the very least ctrl-click
(open link in new tab) and shift-click (open link in new window) are used
for functions in Firefox and won't get sent to the page itself no matter
what your code does.

Well, I've got it working, so I am afraid you are wrong! I have done a
fairly simple modification of the code to make it work, but if you
think of it a mouse-click has an event attached to it. The event has
properties (in all browsers) that allow you to determine the state of
the control, shift and alt keys. My problem was simply that not all
browsers handle the event in the same way. I won't post my current
code as it still contains browser dependent code, but I'll post the
final version.

I have just modified my code in line with your suggestion and so far
it looks good - your concerns about the X,Y positions seem to be
unfounded.
