This is not a question about clicking; this is a question about only.
If you mean: "click this button and no other", then you want "click only"
If you mean "click this button, but don't do anything else to it" then you
want "only click"

Here's a variation on the perennial question about clicking ...
Should we write:
"Click only the button in the dialog box ... "
or
"Only click the button in the dialog box ... "
Thanks.
