I am not able to get the clientX (or pageX), clientY(or PageY) values in the

event. It is working fine in IE but in MozillaFirefox , clientX and clientY are not

in event.

Use this script

var isOpera, isIE, isNav, isFox, isOther = false;
if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Opera")!=-1) {
isOpera = true;
} else if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Firefox")!=-1) {
isFox = true;
} else if (navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer") {
isIE = true;
} else if (navigator.appName == "Netscape") {
isNav = true;
} else {
isOther = true;
}

if (isIE)
{
OffsetX = window.event.offsetX;
OffsetY = window.event.offsetY;
} else {
OffsetX = e.pageX - document.getElementById("divImage").offsetLeft;
OffsetY = e.pageY - document.getElementById("divImage").offsetTop;
}

You need to supply the event, this is predefined but needs to be explicit, so I've made it a function parameter.

Try this:

<html>
<head>
<title>Event</title>
<script>
function openwin(url,x,y,nam,event)
{
var nwin = window.open(url,nam,"resizable=0, menubar=0, status=0, toolbar=0, directories=0, location=0, scrollbars=1")
nwin.resizeTo(x, y);

var posy = event.clientY;
var posx = event.clientX;

nwin.moveTo(posx,posy);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onClick="openwin('somepage.htm',100,100,'childWin' ,event)">
</body>
</html>
