I'm attempting to automate work on an external webpage.

One particular element refuses to respond unless the mouse cursor is above it, which means the automation fails.

I have tried firing events such as onmouseover, onmousedown etc.. but nothing appears to work unless the system mouse cursor is above the DOM element.

Are there any ways to fool the element that a cursor it there?

Its possible to trigger certain events to happen without user intervention. If you provide more information and relevant code, the community may be able to help or offer some guidance.
