Just like the question states. I want to fire off an event that calls a method everytime the user clicks on the web page.
How do I do that without use of jQuery?

Without using jQuery, I think you could do it like this:
if (document.addEventListener) {
document.addEventListener('click',
function (event) {
// handle event here
},
false
);
} else if (document.attachEvent) {
document.attachEvent('onclick',
function (event) {
// handle event here
}
);
}
Here's one way to do it..
if (window.addEventListener)
{
window.addEventListener('click', function (evt)
{
//do something
}, false);
}
else if(window.attachEvent)
{
window.attachEvent('onclick', function (evt)
{
// do something (for IE)
});
}
$(document).click(function(){});
document.onclick = function() { alert("hello"); };
note that this will only allow for one such function though.
