[Prototype-core] Re: Event.isLeftClick() vs. click event in IE
BTW, your example in IE6 produces following results:
for click:
Left click: You clicked with your button. Event.button = 0 and Event.which
= undefined
Right and middle click: no effect, as expected
for mousedown, as expected:
Left click: You clicked with your Left button. Event.button = 1 and
Event.which = undefined
You clicked with your Middle button. Event.button = 4 and Event.which =
undefined
You clicked with your Right button. Event.button = 2 and Event.which =
undefined
See, for click event isLeftButton is broken.
Should I send you example to prove that click may be toggled via keyboard?

Ah. Yes. on clickable objects (anchors and buttons), sorry. Forgot about those.
But what are you trying to do by watching which mouse button?

mousedown and click are both non-keyboard events.

This is true for IE (7 on WinXPSP2) and FF (2.0.0.1 on WinXPSP2).
Here is a script to show you...

Try left/right/middle clicking in IE and FF and then change 'click' to
'mousedown' and retest.
Hopefully that will show you what we mean.

Is it possible to fix isLeftClick? If not, is there some nice

for this situation?

Well, I want simple things:
- support both mouse and keyboard interaction
- same handler for both events
- ignore right and middle clicks
Now it seems that click event suits well here, but I remember having
troubles when it was toggled by right button in some browser, FF
probably. Yeah, I checked out, FF does trigger click event for right
button too.
