I have the following event handler for my html element

jQuery("#seek-bar").click(function(e){
    var x = e.pageX - e.target.offsetLeft;
    alert(x);    
});

I need to find the position of the mouse on the #seek-bar at the time of clicking. I would have thought the above code should work, but it gives incorrect result

  • 4 Position relative to the element, the viewport or the entire document? – James Commented Jul 13, 2010 at 7:30
  • I made it work using e.layerX - e.target.offsetLeft and for Oprea just used e.offsetX – Roman Commented Jul 13, 2010 at 8:12
  • if you wish to get it on a responsive site. try this article, you can get it on responsive sites as well. kvcodes.com/2014/03/… – Kvvaradha Commented Feb 16, 2016 at 4:58
  • e.offsetX seems to work on Firefox and Chrome as well. According to jQuery page it is copied but not normalized. – Ale Commented Dec 15, 2020 at 17:39

Reset to default 250

Are you trying to get the position of mouse pointer relative to element ( or ) simply the mouse pointer location

Try this Demo : http://jsfiddle.net/AMsK9/


Edit :

1) event.pageX, event.pageY gives you the mouse position relative document !

Ref : http://api.jquery.com/event.pageX/
http://api.jquery.com/event.pageY/

2) offset() : It gives the offset position of an element

Ref : http://api.jquery.com/offset/

3) position() : It gives you the relative Position of an element i.e.,

consider an element is embedded inside another element

example :

<div id="imParent">
   <div id="imchild" />
</div>

Ref : http://api.jquery.com/position/

HTML

<body>
   <div id="A" style="left:100px;"> Default    <br /> mouse<br/>position </div>
   <div id="B" style="left:300px;"> offset()   <br /> mouse<br/>position </div>
   <div id="C" style="left:500px;"> position() <br /> mouse<br/>position </div>
</body>

JavaScript

$(document).ready(function (e) {

    $('#A').click(function (e) { //Default mouse Position 
        alert(e.pageX + ' , ' + e.pageY);
    });

    $('#B').click(function (e) { //Offset mouse Position
        var posX = $(this).offset().left,
            posY = $(this).offset().top;
        alert((e.pageX - posX) + ' , ' + (e.pageY - posY));
    });

    $('#C').click(function (e) { //Relative ( to its parent) mouse position 
        var posX = $(this).position().left,
            posY = $(this).position().top;
        alert((e.pageX - posX) + ' , ' + (e.pageY - posY));
    });
});
$('#something').click(function (e){
    var elm = $(this);
    var xPos = e.pageX - elm.offset().left;
    var yPos = e.pageY - elm.offset().top;

    console.log(xPos, yPos);
});

Try this:

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
   $("#special").click(function(e){
      $('#status2').html(e.pageX +', '+ e.pageY);
   }); 
})

Here you can find more info with DEMO

In percentage :

$('.your-class').click(function (e){
    var $this = $(this); // or use $(e.target) in some cases;
    var offset = $this.offset();
    var width = $this.width();
    var height = $this.height();
    var posX = offset.left;
    var posY = offset.top;
    var x = e.pageX-posX;
        x = parseInt(x/width*100,10);
        x = x<0?0:x;
        x = x>100?100:x;
    var y = e.pageY-posY;
        y = parseInt(y/height*100,10);
        y = y<0?0:y;
        y = y>100?100:y;
    console.log(x+'% '+y+'%');
});

If MouseEvent.offsetX is supported by your browser (all major browsers actually support it), The jQuery Event object will contain this property.

The MouseEvent.offsetX read-only property provides the offset in the X coordinate of the mouse pointer between that event and the padding edge of the target node.

$("#seek-bar").click(function(event) {
  var x = event.offsetX
  alert(x);    
});

html

<body>
<p>This is a paragraph.</p>
<div id="myPosition">
</div>
</body>

css

#myPosition{
  background-color:red;
  height:200px;
  width:200px;
}

jquery

$(document).ready(function(){
    $("#myPosition").click(function(e){
       var elm = $(this);
       var xPos = e.pageX - elm.offset().left;
       var yPos = e.pageY - elm.offset().top;
       alert("X position: " + xPos + ", Y position: " + yPos);
    });
});
