alpineedge3,
I just Googled 'window.event.screenX' and, you're right, it seems to
be a valid native way to get the mouse coordinates. I just learned
this new stuff today! :-)
But as per my experience, calling an alert dialog in some dynamic/
anychronous JavaScript can cause trouble.
Just try getting these coordinates without using an alert, with a
variable, and it should work.
