I notice that you're defining a function in the standard GLOBAL way
and expect it to be LOCAL
var localfunction = function(){.....} is a local function
and the clientX and clientY are the coordinates of the click.. (not

it's hard to give great advise without a live link!
But it's Sunday and everybody is off drinking or praying or convening!
So I figure I'd add my 2 cents.
