getting mouse position with javascript within canvas

I'm studying jquery and html5 canvas. All I want to do is a simple html5 drawing example. When the mouse move, I draw red squares under my mouse.

My code is simple, but I have a problem getting the mouse cursor position within the canvas.

Right now, I am using x=event.offsetX; to get the mouse position. This works very well in chrome, however when it comes to firefox, it doesn't work. I changed the code t开发者_开发技巧o x=event.layerX. but it seems that layerX is the position of my mouse relative to the web page, not the position of the canvas. because I always see an offset.

I have two questions, first, what is the right thing to do to get the correct mouse position under firefox. second, how can i write a code that works for ie, firefox, chrome, safari and opera?

here is my code:

 <!doctype html />
<html><head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
  $(document).ready(
 function(){

var flip = document.getElementById('flip');
    var context = flip.getContext('2d');   
context.fillStyle = "rgb(255,255,255)";   
context.fillRect(0, 0, 500, 500);

      $("a").click(function(event){alert("Thanks for visiting!");});
   $("#flip").mousemove(function(event){
      var x, y;


    x = event.layerX;
    y = event.layerY;


    //alert("mouse pos"+event.layerX );
    var flip = document.getElementById('flip');
    var context = flip.getContext('2d');   
context.fillStyle = "rgb(255,0,0)";   
context.fillRect(x, y, 5, 5);
    }
   );
  }
  );    
  </script>
  </head>  <body bgcolor="#000000"> <a href="http://jquery.com/">jQuery</a><canvas id="flip" width="500" height="500">
  This text is displayed if your browser does not support HTML5 Canvas.</canvas> </body></html>


I see plenty of question on this subject and all propose to browse DOM or use offsetX and offsetY, which are not always set right.

You should use the function: canvas.getBoundingClientRect() from the canvas API.

  function getMousePos(canvas, evt) {
    var rect = canvas.getBoundingClientRect();
    return {
      x: evt.clientX - rect.left,
      y: evt.clientY - rect.top
    };
  }

  canvas.addEventListener('mousemove', function(evt) {
    var mousePos = getMousePos(canvas, evt);
    console.log('Mouse position: ' + mousePos.x + ',' + mousePos.y);
  }, false);

        <meta charset = "utf-8">

        <script>
            Element.prototype.leftTopScreen = function () {
                var x = this.offsetLeft;
                var y = this.offsetTop;

                var element = this.offsetParent;

                while (element !== null) {
                    x = parseInt (x) + parseInt (element.offsetLeft);
                    y = parseInt (y) + parseInt (element.offsetTop);

                    element = element.offsetParent;
                }

                return new Array (x, y);
            }

            document.addEventListener ("DOMContentLoaded", function () {
                var flip = document.getElementById ("flip");

                var xy = flip.leftTopScreen ();

                var context = flip.getContext ("2d");

                context.fillStyle = "rgb(255,255,255)";   
                context.fillRect (0, 0, 500, 500);

                flip.addEventListener ("mousemove", function (event) {
                    var x = event.clientX;
                    var y = event.clientY;

                    context.fillStyle = "rgb(255, 0, 0)";  
                    context.fillRect (x - xy[0], y - xy[1], 5, 5);
                });
            });    
        </script>

        <style>
            #flip {
                border: 1px solid black;
                display: inline-block;

            }

            body {
                text-align: center;
            }
        </style>
    </head>

    <body>
        <canvas id = "flip" width = "500" height = "500">This text is displayed if your browser does not support HTML5 Canvas.</canvas>
    </body>
</html>

You don't have to worry about compatibility, only IE (prior 9) does not support canvas natively.


You will need a custom function to work out where the element is and then work out where the mouse is within that element. Here is an example. It uses this function from quirks mode and my JavaScript library which should not be difficult to translate into jQuery.

function findPos(obj) {
    var curleft = curtop = 0;

    if (obj.offsetParent) {
        do {
            curleft += obj.offsetLeft;
            curtop += obj.offsetTop;
        } while (obj = obj.offsetParent);

        return [curleft, curtop];
    }
}

EDIT

This will not work in IE due to it not supporting pageX. You will have to pass the event object through a function like this to correct that. But as 2x2p1p said, canvas is not supported by any Internet Explorer below version 9.
