Wow... that is ... so not the jQuery way to do things ;)
First, go download the Dimensions plugin. With it you can get a value
for the window's innerWidth cross-browser. See, Dimensions extends the
.width() and .height() functions so you can pass window to the $()
selector and get a proper value. Once that's in place you would just do
something like this...
$elm = $(elm); // if we are going to $() something more then once, make
a reference to it instead
$elm.animate({
left:$(window).width() + $elm.width() + 20 // just to be on
the safe side
});
This is UNTESTED, and prolly doesn't fit your scenario perfectly, but
you can get an idea of what you will need to go forward.
HTH.

Subject: Re: [jQuery] animating off screen
Here is some code from the Geometry lib I've written based on some code
out of one of my books and whatnot.
if (window.innerWidth) { //All but IE
Geometry.getViewportWidth = function() { return
window.innerWidth; };
Geometry.getViewportHeight = function() { return
window.innerHeight; };
Geometry.getHorizontalScroll = function() { return
window.pageXOffset; };
Geometry.getVerticalScroll = function() { return
window.pageYOffset; };
} else if (document.documentElement &&
document.documentElement.clientWidth) { // IE6 w/ doctype
Geometry.getViewportWidth = function() { return
document.documentElement.clientWidth; };
Geometry.getViewportHeight = function() { return
document.documentElement.clientHeight; };
Geometry.getHorizontalScroll = function() { return
document.documentElement.scrollLeft ; };
Geometry.getVerticalScroll = function() { return
document.documentElement.scrollTop; };
} else if (document.body.clientWidth) { // IE4,5,6(w/o doctype)
Geometry.getViewportWidth = function() { return
document.body.clientWidth; };
Geometry.getViewportHeight = function() { return
document.body.clientHeight; };
Geometry.getHorizontalScroll = function() { return
document.body.scrollLeft; };
Geometry.getVerticalScroll = function() { return
document.body.scrollTop; };
}
The Viewport functions will tell you how big the browser window is (
displayable area only)

Hi,
Yesterday I got some great help on how to animate a DIV and move it from
offscreen left to the middle of the screen. My question now is I want
to slide that div to off-screen right. The complication is that I don't
know how big the user's browser is going to be. How can I slide the div
completely off screen to the right?
Thanks, - Dave
