    HTMLIFrameElement.sendTouchEvent()

    Non-standard
    This feature is not on a current W3C standards track, but it is supported on the Firefox OS platform. Although implementations may change in the future and it is not supported widely across browsers, it is suitable for use in code dedicated to Firefox OS apps.

    This API is available on Firefox OS for privileged or certified applications only.

    The sendTouchEvent() method of the HTMLIFrameElement allows you to fake a touch event and send it to the browser <iframe>'s content.

    Note: This method is available for touch-enabled devices only.

    Syntax

    instanceOfHTMLIframeElement.sendTouchEvent(type, x, y, rx, ry,
                                           rotationAngles, forces,
                                           count, modifiers);

    Returns

    Void.

    Parameters

    type
    A string representing the event type. Possible values are touchstart, touchend, touchmove, or touchcancel.
    x
    An array of numbers representing the x position of each touch point relative to the browser <iframe>'s visible area in CSS pixels.
    y
    An array of numbers representing the y position of each touch point relative to the browser <iframe>'s visible area in CSS pixels.
    rx
    An array of numbers representing the x radius of each touch point in CSS pixels.
    ry
    An array of numbers representing the y radius of each touch point in CSS pixels.
    rotationAngles
    An array of numbers representing the angle of each touch point in degrees.
    forces
    An array of numbers representing the intensity of each touch in the range 0–1.
    count
    The number of touches that should be performed.
    modifiers
    A number representing a key pressed at the same time the mouse button was clicked:
    • 1 :  Alt
    • 2 :  Ctrl
    • 4 :  Shift
    • 8 :  Meta
    • 16 :  Alt Gr

    Note: You can specify multiple key modifiers separated by a pipe symbol, for example 1 | 1014.
