DescriptionInitiates when a form filler presses the
mouse button at the same time that the pointer is within a field.
Note: When a mouseDown event initiates
for a text or numeric field, calculations or scripts run immediately.
However, the value of the field does not change in response to calculations
and scripts until the field loses focus. When a mouseDown event initiates
for a signature field, the event initiates before the signature
process begins.

ExampleYou
can use this event to perform an action as a direct response to
a form filler clicking a button, or selecting a radio button or
check box on a form. For example, you can use the mouseDown event
for a check box to hide and show a field on the form. This event
is conceptually similar to the click event and
has a similar purpose.
