Use pageX and pageY in Netscape navigator 4, and clientX and clientY in Internet Explorer 4+:
<script language="JavaScript"><!--
function coords(e) {
if (document.layers) {
alert(e.pageX + ',' + e.pageY);
}
else if (window.event) {
alert(window.event.clientX + ',' + window.event.clientY);
}
}
//--></script>
