Hi,

Are there asp.net functions to find the cursor position of a mouse?
Also, are there functions to find if the mouse cursor is within a listbox?

A C# (windows forms) code sample is shown below:

Listbox lb; //lb is a listbox
Point cpos = lb.PointToClient(Cursor.Position); //find coordinates of mouse
if(lb.ClientRectangle.Contains(cpos)) //if mouse cursor is within the listbox

Are there any asp.net functions which can do the same as the above c# methods?
 
Thought ASP.NET Web Forms and Windows Forms might sounds very similiar they employ very different application development aproaches. Therefore I strongly recomend to give up implementing this "cursor position" feature in the web application.
 
The difference is between client-side and server-side. Asp is server-side. It runs on the server, not the end-user's machine, which means that it can't interact with the user in the same manner that a WinForms application can. If you want your web pages to be more interactive, you need to look into something like JavaScript, which runs client-side (but your source will always be available to the user).
