CreateChildSymbol on the top left bottom right edges of the window/stage?

I am creating a particle system and I am trying to generate the particles / CreateChildSymbol on the top left bottom right edges of the window/stage?

 

Currently I am generating random X & Y points but thats not really doing what I need.

 



// find the stage width & height


sym.maxWidth = $('#Stage').width();


sym.maxHeight = $('#Stage').height();

 



// randomize the numbers 1-12


var randomSymbol = Math.floor((Math.random()*12)+1);

 



// Pull symbol from lib and add to stage


sym.mainParticle = sym.createChildSymbol("symbol_ani_" + randomSymbol, "Stage");

 



// create jQuery object / Edge Ani element var


sym.mainParticleElement = sym.mainParticle.getSymbolElement();

 



// randomize the stage X & Y coords


var randomX = Math.floor(Math.random() * sym.maxWidth);


var randomY = Math.floor(Math.random() * sym.maxHeight);

 



// position  based on random stage X + Y position


sym.mainParticleElement.css({'position':'absolute','top':randomY+'px', 'left':randomX+'px'});

 

But I am at a loss of how to randomize the top / right / bottom / left X & Y edges of the stage
