[jQuery] Getting the numeric value of the top attribute of an object

[Andy Matthews]

I would like to dynamically get the numeric value for the top of an object.
I'm using this code:
 
var inventoryObj = $('#inventory');
inventoryObj.css('top');
 
But it just returns "auto".
 
1) Am I using the correct method?
2) If so, is there a different method that I can use to get the value that I
need?
