Remarks

The following example uses IDOMMSPointerEvent::pointerType to check whether a pointer is primary from inside events other than IHTMLDocument8::onmspointerdown.

elm.addEventListener("MSPointerDown",handleDown,false);
function handleDown(evt) {
  if(evt.pointerType == evt.MSPOINTER_TYPE_TOUCH) {
    // Do something for touch input only
  }else{
    // Do something for non-touch input
  }
}
