Brandon, I wanted to use it for Plazes, but then experienced that it was quite slow. I wanted to use offset() to create kind of a tooltip that follows the mouse cursor on mouseover. It seems to me that there is too much going on if I need just one value (the offset from the element in its parent container). I ended up in extracting the parts I needed. I also hesitated, because the plugin overwrites height()/width() and I don't know in which way. Still its a great plugin, don't get me wrong! -- Klaus _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list [email protected] http://jquery.com/discuss/
