Non-standard
This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.

The MouseEvent.which read-only property indicates which button was pressed on the mouse to trigger the event. The standard alternatives to this property are MouseEvent.button and MouseEvent.buttons.

Syntax

var buttonPressed = instanceOfMouseEvent.which

Return value

A number representing a given button:

  • 0: No button
  • 1: Left button
  • 2: Middle button (if present)
  • 3: Right button

For a mouse configured for left-handed use, the button actions are reversed. In this case, the values are read from right to left.

Specification

This is not part of any specification.
