@@ -19,11 +21,29 @@ Parameter | Type | Default Value | Description
 webgazer  | object | `undefined` | You can explicitly pass a reference to a loaded instance of the webgazer.js library. If no explicit reference is passed then the extension will look for a global `webgazer` object. If you are loading webgazer.js via a `<script>` tag you do not need to set this parameter in most circumstances.
 round_predictions | bool | true | Whether to round the `x`,`y` coordinates predicted by WebGazer to the nearest whole number. This *greatly* reduces the size of the data, as WebGazer records data to 15 decimal places by default. Given the noise of the system, there's really no need to record data to this level of precision.
 
+### Trial Parameters
+
+Trial parameters can be set when adding the extension to a trial object.
+
+```js
+var trial = {
+  type: '...',
+  extensions: [
+    {type: 'webgazer', params: {...}}
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Parameter | Type | Default Value | Description
+----------|------|---------------|------------
+targets | array | [] | A list of elements on the page that you would like to record the coordinates of for comparison with the webgazer data. Each entry in the array should be a valid [CSS selector string](https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.asp) that identifies the element. The selector string should be valid for exactly one element on the page. If the selector is valid for more than one element then only the first matching element will be recorded.

 ## Data Generated
 
 Name | Type | Value
 -----|------|------
 webgazer_data | array | An array of objects containing gaze data for the trial. Each object has an `x`, a `y`, and a `t` property. The `x` and `y` properties specify the gaze location in pixels and `t` specifies the time in milliseconds since the start of the trial.
+webgazer_targets | array | An array of objects contain the pixel coordinates of elements on the screen specified by the `.targets` parameter. Each object contains a `selector` property, containing the CSS selector string used to find the element, plus `top`, `bottom`, `left`, and `right` parameters which specify the [bounding rectangle](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/getBoundingClientRect) of the element.

Each object has an `x`, a `y`, and a `t` property. The `x` and `y` properties specify the gaze location in pixels and `t` specifies the time in milliseconds since the start of the trial. Note that establishing the precision and accuracy of these measurements across the variety of web browsers and systems that your experiment participants might be using is quite difficult. For example, different browsers may cause small systematic shifts in the accuracy of `t` values.

+The `params` property in the `extensions` declaration allows you to pass in a list of [CSS selector strings](https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.asp). The [bounding rectangle](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/getBoundingClientRect) of the DOM element that matches each selector will be recorded in the data for that trial. This allows for easy alignment of the gaze data and objects on the screen.
