    Hey Everyone.
    can someone help me get this to work in FF and other mozilla-based browsers

    Code:
    var mosX = 0 ;
    var mosY = 0 ;
    function StetDiVPosition(obj)
    {
    document.getElementById('sShot').style.visibility="visible";
    mosX = event.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft ;
    mosY = event.clientY + document.body.scrollTop;

    document.getElementById('sShot').style.top=mosY-200;
    document.getElementById('sShot').style.left=mosX;
    document.getElementById('sShot').innerHTML='<img src='+obj+'>' ;
    }thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    Where are you getting the event instance from? If your code works on IE but not the other browsers then check out the following reference on DOM event

    Hope this helps
