How do I get the position of the mouse when I click the LinkButton?
Short answer: you can’t. ASP.NET WebForm’s events are an abstraction on top of the HTTP
<form>POST action. Web browsers don’t submit the coordinates of the cursor.Long answer: it’s possible, using a variety of means depending on your scenario. The “easiest” way is to use a framework like jQuery and handle client-side mouse-click events for every element on the page, when the mouse is clicked you intercept the form’s
onsubmitaction and update an<input type="hidden" />with the coordinates and then let the form submission continue.…or use an
<input type="image" />which includes the coordinates when submitted http://dev.w3.org/html5/markup/input.image.htmlOf course, your code makes an assumption that the user is using a mouse to begin with. There are other web user-agents that don’t have pointing devices, like smartphones, touch-tablets, and spiders.
