javascript onclick problem

Hi Guys,
I have the following code to display a menu on mouse over.

Code:

<span class="stencilHead" onMouseOver="showMenu('Stencil-Menu');">
<img src="../english/images/button_menuSmall.gif" width="34" height="11" border="0" alt="" style="position:relative;top:1px;">
</span>
<div id="Stencil-Menu" class="hovermenu">
<div class=hovercontent><a class=navleftsm href="javascript:perform('clearstencil', '-1');">Clear Stencil</a><br><br class=size1></div>
</div>

When i try the same for onClick (replacing onMouseOver with onClick), it is not working.

In the javascript i have the following code.

Code:

if (isIE){
document.attachEvent('onclick',mouseClickHandler);
}

function mouseClickHandler(e) {
var clickedNode = getTarget(e);
if (!clickedNode) return;

if (isPlusMinus(clickedNode) )
{
if (isCollapsed(clickedNode))
         expand(clickedNode);
   else if (isExpanded(clickedNode))
      collapse(clickedNode);
}
else
{
   var plus_minus = getPlusMinus(clickedNode);
   if (plus_minus != null)
      highlightTopic(plus_minus);
}

}

If i put an alert() in the mouseClickHandler() function it is working along with displaying the alert statement, but if i remove the alert it is not working.

Can someone tell me what's going wrong in my code and what's needed to be done to make it work?

Thanks you.
Lara

Hi Guys,
Sorry for the earlier post on problem with onClick. Turned out , it is a problem with another javascript and not with onClick section. Thanks and sorry once again about it.
