Is it possible to set the mouse position in javascript?

[hdanw]

My appologies if this sounds stupid, I wish I had a "Comprehensive" reference for javascript. I'm not sure one exists.

I would like to develop a web application that has a learning mode, in which the user is walked through using the site.

I would like to Present information, then reposition the mouse by gradually moving it to a new position, that of a link for example, and then simulate a button click, or tool selection.

I haven't had much luck finding any info on the subject, a definative "Can't be done" would suffice. But no information usually indicates that I haven't looked hard enough.


Thanks,

Dan -

hi ...

i think there is no way to set! the mousepointers position with javascript ... a page would gain control over your inputdevice and you wouldn't be able to do something :) ... but: you may track the mouseposition and you could move elements to that position ... or just use the focus()-method and some css to focus the node and highlight it in some way ...

kind regards

Is there a way to hide the mouse?


Then I could use a mouse shaped bitmap instead.


I notice that sometimes it dis appears.

LIke maybe select a mouse cursor that is completely see through?

I've never tried, but you could try adapting something like this.
