LayerX and layerY returns undefined in IE/Opera

[Haris]

object.layerX and object.layerY is not cross-browser. IE/Opera doesn't support layerX and layerY variables returned by mouseover, click and other events.

jQuery returns the event object with whatever properties are provided by the browser, and also normalizes a set of properties so they will be consistent across all browsers.

Are you requesting that layerX and layerY be added to the normalized set?

This is the same as;

In JQuery 1.2.3 with Safari/FireFox/Opera, layerX/Y would return the expected values. However, when upgrading to 1.2.6, all browsers instead return undefined. In Internet Explorer 6/7 JQuery has always returned undefined.

OK, thanks, I'll close this as a dup and refer it back here.
