I must add to it, that tempX and tempY variables used in DoGetPos() function were to be declared outside the function scope :-) and not within.

Thanks for Wedjet! (And your additions Paul) I'm creating a member directory where people get to look up each other's details and the box is popping up nicely, near the name of the person clicked.

It's a little bit erratic, though. Have to sort out what's the best way to get mouse position, across browsers. Also, the box is positioning differently depending on content. Some methods seem to work better than others. Still learning various javascript properties for that, although screenX/screenY seem to be working best for me. I've seen some posts elsewhere that recommend detecting browser first, then use different functions accordingly. It's not as clean as I'd like. Will do more testing.

One thing I just noticed: I Can't pick up the box and move it when using Firefox. Thought I'd inquire here before snooping around on the internet to see if there's a way to make that doable. Any hints?

Do you have firebug installed.

If not can you install it and see if there are any javascript errors?

I think that is the best way to debug your script.

I had difficulty getting my wedjet to show up where the mouse click occurred. Wasn't taking the document scroll into account. With a little help from Firebug (Thank you very much) and this article, I altered mine to the code below:

http://javascript.about.com/library/blmousepos.htm


var tempX = 0;
var tempY = 0;
function DoGetPos(event){
tempX = mouseX(event);
tempY = mouseY(event);
}

function mouseX(evt) {
if (evt.pageX) return evt.pageX;
else if (evt.clientX)
return evt.clientX + (document.documentElement.scrollLeft ?
document.documentElement.scrollLeft :
document.body.scrollLeft);
else return null;
}

function mouseY(evt) {
if (evt.pageY) return evt.pageY;
else if (evt.clientY)
return evt.clientY + (document.documentElement.scrollTop ?
document.documentElement.scrollTop :
document.body.scrollTop);
else return null;
}
