The mouseup
event is fired at an Element
when a button on a pointing device (such as a mouse or trackpad) is released while the pointer is located inside it.
mouseup
events are the counterpoint to mousedown
events.
This behavior is different from pointerup
events. When using a physical mouse, mouseup
events fire whenever any button on a mouse is released. pointerup
events fire only upon the last button release; previous button releases, while other buttons are held down, don't fire pointerup
events.
Use the event name in methods like addEventListener()
, or set an event handler property.
addEventListener("mouseup", (event) => { })
onmouseup = (event) => { }
Event type Event properties
This interface also inherits properties of its parents, UIEvent
and Event
.
MouseEvent.altKey
Read only
Returns true
if the alt key was down when the mouse event was fired.
MouseEvent.button
Read only
The button number that was pressed (if applicable) when the mouse event was fired.
MouseEvent.buttons
Read only
The buttons being pressed (if any) when the mouse event was fired.
MouseEvent.clientX
Read only
The X coordinate of the mouse pointer in viewport coordinates.
MouseEvent.clientY
Read only
The Y coordinate of the mouse pointer in viewport coordinates.
MouseEvent.ctrlKey
Read only
Returns true
if the control key was down when the mouse event was fired.
MouseEvent.layerX
Non-standard Read only
Returns the horizontal coordinate of the event relative to the current layer.
MouseEvent.layerY
Non-standard Read only
Returns the vertical coordinate of the event relative to the current layer.
MouseEvent.metaKey
Read only
Returns true
if the meta key was down when the mouse event was fired.
MouseEvent.movementX
Read only
The X coordinate of the mouse pointer relative to the position of the last mousemove
event.
MouseEvent.movementY
Read only
The Y coordinate of the mouse pointer relative to the position of the last mousemove
event.
MouseEvent.offsetX
Read only
The X coordinate of the mouse pointer relative to the position of the padding edge of the target node.
MouseEvent.offsetY
Read only
The Y coordinate of the mouse pointer relative to the position of the padding edge of the target node.
MouseEvent.pageX

MouseEvent.webkitForce
Non-standard Read only
The amount of pressure applied when clicking.
MouseEvent.x
