Type

message

Summary

Sent when the mouse is clicked in a browser object.

Syntax

browserClick <pInstanceId>, <pElementId>
XBrowser_Click <pElementId>, <pInstanceId>

Description

The browserClick message is sent to the current card of a stack containing a browser object when the mouse is clicked in the browser.

note

The browserClick message is only sent if advanced browser messages are turned on. To turn on advanced browser messages use the following command:

    revBrowserSet tInstanceId, \"messages\", \"true\"

The browserClick message is currently only available on Windows.

The id of an html element is the element's "id" attribute. For example <div id="navbar">. As this attribute is optional in most cases, not all html elements will have an id. If the html element that the mouse was clicked over does not have an id, then the elementId parameter will be empty.

note

The browserClick message is not sent on OS X due to lack of system support in the underlying browser object.

note

For general information on using the browser library, see the notes in the revBrowserOpen function reference.
