Pointer events

Last updated on : 2023-03-20

Note:
Pointer events shows a browser compatibility score of 97. This is a collective score out of 100 to represent browser support of a web technology. The higher this score is, the greater is the browser compatibility. The browser compatibility score is not a 100% reflection for every browser and the web technology support. However, it does give you an estimate on how much you should rely on a particular web technology in terms of browser compatibility.

Overview

By setting this property to none , hover and click events will be handled on the element, instead of any elements that are behind it. Setting this to none makes it possible to create drop down menus with only ensuring that the intended elements are active and overlapping correctly.
