jQuery Set Mouse Position (not cursor position)

Question

I have a link that, when clicked, I would like it to move the position of the mouse to the right (or anywhere within the viewport, for that matter).

in code it would probably look similar to the following:

$('a#expand').click(function(e){
    $(document)
       .mouseXPos(e.pageX + 50)
       .mouseYPos(e.pageY + 50);
});

Chaining might not be necessary, of course, but a similar 'set mouse position' functionality is what I am after.

I've seen solutions to move the cursor position to a certain spot in the text, but I didn't glean much from them.

Thanks in advance for your time and help. -Michael

Answer 1

I may be wrong, but I don't think it's possible to move the mouse pointer from client-side script. Given the potential for abuse, I certainly hope it isn't.

Answer 2

There is no mechanism for moving the mouse via JavaScript.

Answer 3

There's no way to accomplish mouse position change via JavaScript or any Client-Side Script. The only reason for that is not to give a client side script potential for abuse as stated before.
