[Watin-users] Moving mouse over an element

[Dmitry D. <dmi...@ma...>]

Hi to all

 

Does anyone have a success in defining of an absolute position of an
element. It is need in order to move mouse on that element.

 

The only idea I have is to use a code like

 

      public static Point GetXY(Element element)

      {

         Assert.ArgumentNotNull(element, "element");

         IHTMLElement pos = (IHTMLElement)element.HTMLElement;

         int x = 0;

         int y = 0;

         while (pos.offsetParent != null)

         {

            x += pos.offsetLeft;

            y += pos.offsetTop;

            pos = pos.offsetParent;

         }

 

         if(pos is HTMLBodyClass)

         {

            IHTMLWindow2 parentWindow =

 
((HTMLDocumentClass)((HTMLBodyClass)pos).ownerDocument).parentWindow;


 

            // I don't know how to do that but it seems to get a handle of
'parentWindow'

      // and though it get a window offset

      // ???????

         }

         

         return new Point(x, y);

      }

 

And the other question: is it possible to emulate dragging without knowing
the real coordinates?

Thanks in advance
