Description
Hi,
I use jQuery 1.4.2 and observed that the attributes layerX/layerY (e.g. Firefox) and offsetX/offsetY (e.g. IE) of mouse events like click are not normalized:
In both browsers all four attributes are available on the jQuery Event object. But layerX/layerY is only filled in Firefox and offsetX/offsetY only in in IE. So I have to consider the browser to find out which attribute to use to find the relative click position within the target.
Is this intended?
This seems to be related to the following tickets: http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/2451 http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/2911
