I think the sourceIndex in IE gives the index into the document.all 
collection.
With Mozilla you would need to build your own "all" collection e.g.
   var allElements = document.getElementsByTagName('*');
   for (var i = 0; i < allElements.length; i++) {
     if (allElements[i] == e.target) {
       alert('sourceIndex is ' + i);
     }
   }
