For IE :

 we = window.event.srcElement;

  if ((we.offsetParent) && (we.offsetParent.tagName != "BODY")) {
    windowDX = window.event.clientX - window.event.x;
    windowDY = window.event.clientY - window.event.y;
  } else {
    windowDX = 0;
    windowDY = 0;
  }

  posX = we.offsetLeft + windowDX + document.body.scrollLeft;
  posY = we.offsetTop + windowDY + document.body.scrollTop;

For  FF:
window.onclick=function mousePos(ev){...}; 
use event property: ev.layerX, ev.layerY
