Hello, I use this function to capture mouse events on a page:


 <script Language="Javascript">

 document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN | Event.MOUSEMOVE |
Event.MOUSEUP | Event.CLICK)
 document.onMouseDown = Message

function Message() {
alert('some_message')
}

</script>

It works just fine with Netscape but I can't make it work with IE5... I
tried a couple of things such as using an event handler or using the
other events (MOUSEMOVE, etc.) but without success.

Anyone can point me out the way to make it work with IE5 ?

Thanks a lot !

Christ.
