The values reported are the correct values for that particular browser. In other words ... that is actually where the element is positioned. The elements are positioned differently based on the browsers interpretation of the CSS you are using. Try positioning an element absolute as a direct child of the body tag and you will see that the results are the same in all browsers.
What exactly are you trying to achieve? Do you have an example? Are you using units other than pixels for margins, borders, etc anywhere in the CSS? Also make sure the element hasLayout. You can force hasLayout on an element by setting zoom: 1 in the CSS for that element. -- Brandon Aaron On 8/10/07, LetsSurf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > [had trouble posting this on the jQuery plugins discussions list] > > Been using the dimensions plugin recently and can't get the offset to > return the same value on all browsers, IE7 mainly is different from > FF2 (opera 9 is same as FF2, but FF3(alpha) is the same as IE7) can't > test on IE6. > > The same problem shows up on the developers website. > http://brandonaaron.net/docs/dimensions/#sample-4 > > If I click run in the different browser I get different results. > > Need the pixels to be correct. > > Some help please. > > /James > >
