Sys.UI.DomEvent clientX Field
Gets the x-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the client area of the browser window, excluding window scroll bars.
var clientX = domEventVar.clientX;
Return Value
An integer that represents the x-coordinate in pixels.
Remarks
Use the clientX field to gets the horizontal offset of the mouse pointer's position relative to the client area of the browser window. The client area excludes window scroll bars.
Example
The following example shows how to use the clientX field to retrieve the x-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the client area of the browser window.
