Pointer Events Polyfill

Pointer Events Polyfill is a short javascript library which adds support for the style attribute "pointer-events: none" to browsers without this feature (namely, MS IE).

Installation

Include any reasonable recent version of jQuery and pointer_events_polyfill.js.

Basic usage:

$(document).ready(function(){
  PointerEventsPolyfill.initialize({});
});

That's it! Any "pointer-events: none" attributes will now work seamlessly in IE.

Options

You can also pass any of the following options into the initialize call:

• selector: CSS selector (default: *). You may wish to narrow this from '*' (all elements) in order to increase performance.
• mouseEvents: Array of JS mouse events (default: ['click','dblclick','mousedown','mouseup']). Note that this default excludes a few mouse events for performance reasons, but you can add them back in.
• usePolyfillIf: Function with boolean return value (default: simple check for IE<11). Return true to apply Pointer Events Polyfill. You can specify your own browser-support test function here (for example, you may wish to use feature detection with Modernizr instead of the default IE check).
