Globalizing an event in IE.

[Deleted]

I really hate IE.. Their support of the DOM truely sucks.

Trying to globalize the window.event so I can keep the functions seperate from each other. Anyone know why this doesn't work? or a CLEAN solution?

<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[ load the calendar using the XML object
var evt;

function loadXMLDoc(event, url) {
    evt = event || window.event;

    processReqChange();
}

function processReqChange() {
    getMousePos();
}

function getMousePos() {
    var posX   = 0;
    var posY   = 0;
    var offset = 5;

    alert(evt.clientX);

    if (document.all) { // ie. support sucks my balls
        posX = evt.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft;
        posY = evt.clientY + document.body.scrollTop;
    }
    else {
        posX = evt.pageX;
        posY = evt.pageY;
    }
}
//]]>
</script>

This would also help.. It's called using

<input type="button" value="Open Calendar" on
Click="loadXMLDoc(event, 'admin.pl?do=calendar&fwd=0')">

This works in everything but IE. IE is worthless!

Deleted,

Did you resolve this in the end, or do you still need help with it?
