I'm trying to position a layer in relative fashion. I threw in a div in a 
table (to act as an 'anchor'),
       <tr><td><div id="pLayer" style="position:absolute"></div>
       </td></tr>
and then wrote a function to grab that position of that 'anchor'
       function getPosition()
       {
         xPosition = DynAPI.document.all['pLayer'].getX();
         yPosition = DynAPI.document.all['pLayer'].getY();
       }
and then created the layer
       layerName = new DynLayer(layerName, xPosition, yPosition, 800, 120, 
null,"visible");

  This worked for IE, but failed for netscape :(
  Is there a better way to do this??
  It seems kind of hack-ish, but

  I looked at some examples on the site 
http://www.richardinfo.com/examples/php/examples.html 
(relative_positioning.html), but they seemed a bit odd to me because it 
looked like a standard layer was being created
DynAPI.onLoad=function() {
        var layer1 = this.document.all['layer1']
        layer1.setBgColor('yellow')
}
  and then a DynAPI method was being used resulting in a javascript error 
about that object not having the method.

  Anyway...any advice on relative positioning would be great...the table in 
question is going to move about (jsp page) depending on what's going on.

  Thank you in advance,
  Cheers, James
