Hey,

While I don't have the time to contribute, something on my list id like to contribute in the future (or probe some of the smarties on this list to do) is a full positioning system. I'd love to be able to write:

centerElement(e); (to center on the user's screen)
getPositionX()
getPositionY()
setPosition(e, x, y);
setElementWidth(e);
setElementHeight(e);
elementFromTop(e, px) (to set the element x pixels form the top);
elementFromLeft(e, px)
elementFromRight(e, px)
elementFromBottom(e, px)

I've been using MochiKit for two weeks, and I'm pretty happy with it. Happy enough that I'm now porting a small javascript widget library used in my work to be based on MochiKit :-).

Now, my question. What about including in Mochikit some functions to get the coordinates of a element relative to the document?. I mean, something like <http://www.quirksmode.org/js/findpos.html> (this is what I'm using now). Or is it a way to do it already present in MochiKit.DOM?


I'll go ahead and add something to svn for 1.2, although it seems like it might be a little quirky depending on what the style.position is set to and it could be fairly hard to create proper automated tests for..
