Coordinate issue in Mozilla

Yamini · July 17th, 2009, 02:24 AM

Code:

  var isIE = document.all?true:false; if(document.getElementById(&quot;ctl00_cphContent_imgMap&quot;) != null ) { document.getElementById(&quot;ctl00_cphContent_imgMap&quot;).onmousedown = getMousePosition; }  function getMousePosition(e) {  var _x;  var _y;  if (!isIE) {   _x = e.pageX ;   _y = e.pageY  }   if (isIE) {   _x = event.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft;  _y = event.clientY + document.body.scrollTop;  }   posX=_x;  posY=_y; }

I call the function from an img onmousedown event I'm able to get the coordiantes in IE and am also able to get it in mozilla too when I getmouseposition onmousedown for the entire body(document.onmousedown) and not just the image area in the body...help appreciated

Not quite sure what you are going for, but try this code instead:

Code:

function GetMousePossition(e)
    {
    var bIsIE = navigator.appName=="Microsoft Internet Explorer";
    var iMouseX = 0;
    var iMouseY = 0;
    if (bIsIE) {iMouseY = event.y; iMouseX = event.x;} else {iMouseY = e.pageY - document.body.scrollTop; iMouseX = e.pageX - document.body.scrollLeft;}
    document.getElementById("Result").innerHTML = "X: " + iMouseX + "  Y: " + iMouseY;
    }

Hope this helped.
