Recording clicks in a web browser

OS: Win 11
PsychoPy version: Stand alone V2023.2.3
Standard Standalone? (y/n): y
What are you trying to achieve?:

Hello!
In my experiment, I will be collecting attention data using a Unicorn EEG headset and a SMI RED 250 eye-tracking system, while participants work through an online course created in Storyline and accessible on a website.

Therefore, I would like to record clicks in an html Window outside of PsychoPy. Is it possible to connect to an outside window, like a web browser running an app and capture mouse events in that window? If so, how?

Please note that I am not a programmer and have basic knowledge of python (but I can get some help coding if need be).

What did you try to make it work?:

I looked at the available codes and conversations in the forum, but none seems to be doing what I need.

Thank you for your help

Hi. I don’t think this is possible in PsychoPy. I have created interactive presentations and stories in PsychoPy to mimic this kind of thing but not something that will work with an existing website.
