The standard solutions to be found on the web (go up the offset tree, remove all scroller positions) simply fail once css comes into play, even worse, once css positioning is in there as well you run into the usual browser bugs. Workin with position relativ opens another can of worms. One reason why I am going to opt for the dojo positional code, there is so much brainwork already being done in there (adding border withs into calculations dealing with browser bugs etc) I do not see any reason of trying to reinvent the wheel here. standard mouse based popups funnly do not have all those issues, because there you can work straight from the mouse position, which you cannot do from control based popups. just my 2c regarding this issue.
