the offsetTop property is an element's position relative to whatever
parent element defines it offset. various IE versions don't agree
with each other wether it's TABLE or TR that's the offsetParent of a
TD, for instance. but I digress...
recursive one-liners fix the problem:
function getObjY(myObj) {
return(myObj.offsetTop + (myObj.offsetParent ? getObjY(myObj.offsetParent) : 0));
}
function getObjX(myObj) {
return(myObj.offsetLeft + (myObj.offsetParent ? getObjX(myObj.offsetParent) : 0));
}
buggy in IE4.5/Mac AFAIR, dunno about IE5/Mac.
thought I'd share those in case anyone needed'em. now back to my
regular lurking...
