obtain mouse coordinates through chrome extension

Question

I am curious to know if there is a way to get the mouse coordinates through a chrome extension and then use these coordinates to check if the person has clicked in that position

Answer 1

Once you have the mouse coordinates, you can make use of "target" attribute with "_blank" value to open an url in a new tab.
URL Display Name

If you are using any javascript framework, you can provide a click event and in its controller, you can make use of default navigate method to navigate.
