    <p>How can I determine the initial mouse position? right now I use <code>onmousemove</code>, but that sometimes only fires when the mouse is actually moved. same with <code>onmouseover</code>.</p> <p>If I don't move the mouse, I observed the following:</p> <p>It seems like in IE a <code>mousemove</code> event is always fired right at the beginning, in firefox never, and in chrome strange enough if the script is loaded from an online location, but not if it's loaded from my local disk.</p> <p>The question arose because I want stuff to dangle on the cursor and I want it to hang there right from the start and not suddenly appear/jump after the first interaction.</p> <p>If the solution will be browser specific, my target is chrome.</p> <p>In case someone wants to explain to me the strange <code>mousemove</code> behavior, this is my test:</p> <pre><code>&lt;html&gt;&lt;head&gt; &lt;script type='text/javascript'&gt; window.onload = function(){ setInterval("document.getElementById('div0').innerHTML = MousePosition.x+' '+MousePosition.y;", 200) } &lt;/script&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://scripterlative.com/files/mousepos.j_s"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;!--&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="mousepos.j_s"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;--&gt; &lt;/head&gt;&lt;body&gt; &lt;div id="div0"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;script type='text/javascript'&gt; MousePosition.init(); &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>PS: you do not need to lecture me about the use of innerHTML and <code>onload</code>, this is quick and dirty on purpose.</p>

    3. COok, i tried it now, it doesnt work. even though clicking the mouse causes a mousemove event, dispatching a click event manually doesnt. in case you meant that i should fire that event with the correct coordinates, this just shifts the problem, how do i know the coordinates without catching them from an event?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
