If you want x & y css co-ordinates to be relative to your parent, the parent must be a positional element, not an inline element. Typically the HTML/BODY tag is the reference as it is the positional element. If you set your parent "position:relative", then all top & left CSS attributes of children will be relative to that parent since the parent is no longer positioned "static" which is the default value.
Firefox & IE behave relatively the same way with this. This all assumes the code for the popup is using CSS positioning On 3/6/06, Lance Frohman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > If your html element is nested inside another (<div>, <Iframe>, ...) the x,y > will be reported > differently between the different browsers.
