Hi All,

I want to capture X and Y co-ordinates on pdf document loaded in iframe. This is an Asp.Net application in which I want to do this functinality.

Script code:

JavaScript

<script type="text/javascript">
        var msgDiv;
        function moveMouse() {
		
            e = window.frames.myFrame.event;
			var ef= e.view.outerWidth;
            msgDiv.innerHTML = "X: "+(e.x-205) + ", Y:" + (ef-e.y)+"  scroll:"+e.screenY +"  offset x:"+e.offsetX+"   "+e.offsetY+"  outerWidth:"+ef +"    win innerWidth:";          
		}
		
        function init() {
            msgDiv = document.getElementById("mPos");
            window.frames.myFrame.document.body.onmouseover = moveMouse;
        }

Design code:

HTML

<div class="op">Quote:</div><body>
   

        <div id="mPos"></div>
		<div class="iframeWrapper">
			<iframe name="myFrame" width="100%" height="1000" src="http://localhost/DESJARDINS_APPLICATION_FOR_ENROLMENT_FORM_9147A.pdf" onload="init()"></iframe>
		</div>
        
   
</body>

I am able to see X and Y co-ordinate on mouse over.
How to capture pointer position on click ?
Also the co-ordinates which displaying on mouse over are not correct, need correction to get exact co-ordinates.
