[yogarajan]

Hi friend

var xPos = document.forms[0].MouseX.value;
var yPos = document.forms[0].MouseY.value;

showPopup(event,xPos+200 ,yPos );  


function showPopup (eventObj,x,y) {
    
   alert(eventObj);
}

here IE return object

but netscape and firefox return false

why

my code support all browser

pls solve this problem

I think it's because Mozilla doesn't use the window.event object. see this article for more details.
