i wonder if there's a way to find an absolute position of a div-layer from the bottom of the page with some jquery-code.
i need the bottom-value of this container, because my elements are positioned from the bottom of the page.
Because of the nature of my page, I would like to animate a div from a fixed postion when someone first visits the site to an absolutely position location using after clicking a menu item using .animate and the easing effects. This part seems to work fine, however, when I click on the "home" button again, the div will not move back to the original fixed position. The div just sticks to the top of the page. My assumption is that the .animate scriptdoesn't' know how to interpret/find the fixed position location. Is there a way to make this work?

<div id=back>
<div id="topmenu">topmenu</div>
<div id="logopart">logopart</div>
<div style='display:inline;'>
<div id="leftmenu">leftmenu</div>
<div id="cont">cont</div>
</div></div>
How do I put "cont" div on the right of "leftmenu" without using "absolute"?? The screenshot was little bit cropped out and there is no problem on width.
I am trying to create a menu system.
The mainmenu is a table
<table><tr><td>menu1</td><td>menu2</td></tr></table>
No I try insert the submenu so that it becomes relative to the main menu
item. For menu1 the relevant code then becomes:
<td style="position:relative;">menu1<div style="position:absolute; top:20;
left:0;">
<a href=x.htm>option1</a><br>
<a href=y.htm>option2</a>
</div></td>
This works fine in IE: the div is positioned relative to the td of menu1.
However, in Mozilla it doesn't work. The div becomes relative to the top of
the page.
What am I doing wrong?
The following works in IE, but not in firefox:
document.getElementById('mydiv').style.left = event.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft;
document.getElementById('mydiv').style.top = event.clientY + document.body.scrollTop;
Any ideas why?
Is it possible to create popup menus without using absolute positioning
that take up no space in the flow of the document and appear with an
onMouseOver()?
I am working on a puzzle that produces a container div.Within that div are produced a grid of 9.16. or 25 tiles.The tiles are positioned absolutely so I can be sure of their relative placement. The container div width and height is calculated according to a preset tile width and height (square actually). So the width of the container should adjust to either 3,4 or 5 tile widths and heights.The trouble is that the offset position of the top left tile is different relative to the container for each different set of tiles (even though it is supposed to be the same position relative to the container for each). I do this so I can apply dragging to the container div.The tiles will follow the container when it is moved and the game will not loose its place when tiles swap locations.(one tile is elected as blank, and tiles, one to left, right, top
or bottm, with game content, will swap location with blank when clicked)
I'm just figuring out how to use absolute inside a relative element to shift an image without changing the flow of the rest of the html. It's working for Firefox 4, but not IE 9.
In firefox the div element doesn't cause a hole in the flow. The div and the image inside is simply moved over to where they should be. But in IE, the image is sitting there as part of the flow bumping down the next things (the text and span tags) and the image isn't moving over to the right at all.
I've tried wrapping the div in an another div but that made no difference. Am I crazy to think this is supposed to work? I'm inserting the div and image tags dynamically in the client in javacript.

I'm trying to get the height of an element that contains content which is absolutely positioned. As far as I can tell, because the absolute positioned content is taken out of the page flow, you cannot retrieve the 'visible' height (ie height as seen onscreen) of the element with properties like clientHeight / offsetHeight.
Is there any way to access the visible height of an element like this?
I place items at absolute locations on my LONG window.
When I scroll the window My Absolute is only relative to the Viewing
Area and tends to move up as i scroll my window.
Is this the normal behaviour ?
I need to have my item fixed to the bottom right hand corner no matter
what is happening to the window, including scrolling.
How to determine how a absoluted positioned element was positioned?
For example, a div positioned with bottom: 10px, will have a "top" read in Firefox. But if using "top" to move the box, instead of moving it, it will grow or shrink.
I'm working on a website where we're using the jquery.linkselect plugin, and we're running into a situation where we have one of the dropdown linkselect menus happening near the very bottom of the users' window.
Imagine that we have a list of articles with abstracts, authors, etc. running down the left hand side in a div which is set to show a scrollbar if the results list gets long, and each article has a linkselect dropdown menu.
Unexpectedly, if you've scrolled to the bottom of the scrolling div and you're on the last item in the list, linkselect is allowing the menu to drop down extending past the bottom of the scrolling div and outside the boundary of the browser window. This is problematic, as it makes the menu items inaccessible.
We're looking for a way to have it automatically detect the bottom of the screen and reposition the menu accordingly (similarly to the way it does it to make sure it doesn't get positioned off the right hand side of the screen). I might be able to hack it, but was hoping maybe the linkselect team might be able to put something in more quickly and efficiently than I can. :)
Alternately, a way to specify that a menu drops up rather than drops down would also be a great solution to our situation (I didn't see that in the options.
Is there are way to position an element at the bottom right of a container if I don't know the height of the container?
Making it float right is obvious and easy, what I really need is to make the element float bottom/right.
I believe FireFox will give me the computed height of the container, but MSIE tells me nothing but 'auto'.
How come when I make a button that's "absolute" position, My dialog overflows and I get the vertical scroll bar if I move the button out of place? I thought it would re size the height accordingly but it doesn't.
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#ui-information-dialog").dialog({

I can't get my lightbox script to work. Also how do you set up absolute bottom for the image on my "artwork" page?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI hired a programmer to develop a drag and drop system for my blog. The user should be able to browse one of my blog entries and click, drag and drop an image from my entry to a fixed bottom bar on that page.The problem we are facing is that when dragging an image, it wont place it on the bottom bar until the whole page is scrolled down to the bottom of the page. This is a problem because some of the pages can be very lengthy
View 2 Replies View RelatedI create an img, map, and area element dynamically. If I set the img to absolute position and set its top and left properties, they are removed as soon as I call $('map').hilight();. I can actually see the absolute position for one second, then the img element fly's over to the left side of the screen.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to position a themeswitcher widget (jquery.themeswitcher.js) near the right edge of a menu widget (jquery.menubar.js). Here is the HTML:
<body>
<h1>Menubar tryout</h1>
<h2>Last action:</h2>
<p id="menubar-command">nothing clicked yet</p>

The menu bar works OK. But the themeswitcher resolutely locates in a screen-wide "overflow" of the menubar div, and doesn't have the correct nifty dropdown (it is squashed up to the height of a single line).
I expect the root of my problem is a misunderstanding on my part of the CSS.
I am trying to modify a jquery plugin (Infinite Carousel) to present some boxes instead of a plain image content. Here is theDemo I m not sure if this is more styling or scripting issue but I am encountering with tow problems as:1 - Contents of The Second round (First Click to Right) Doesn't fit inside the wrapper2 - There are some unknown dots ... after the Twelve and before the first item(in First click to left or Second Click to Right).
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am creating a single column fluid layout and have run into an issue when positioning the images I display via Mike Alsup's cycle plugin. I dynamically load a "content" DIV with three other DIVs, one of which is controlled by the cycle plugin. The other two DIVs are positioned as expected, however the DIV that cycle is handling has positioning CSS added to it inline that is pulling it out of my page flow. (When I disable the cycle code the single image I load first displays as expected.) Here is the code from that particular DIV:

I'm trying to create a sliding panel using css and jQuery, sliding up from the footer of our page. The panel is acitvated by clicking the "newsletter" link (will be used to display a subscription form) in the footer. Functionality looks good, but there is a problem with the look and the positioning. First of all, the positioning is off. It fits seemlesly in the FF I used for creating this effect, but on various browsers and resolutions, the div is displayed higher or lower in stead of "glued" to the top of the footer div. Secondly, I'd like this div to be 100% wide, just like the footer below, with a 940px centered div within to include the content.

If the screen resolution is small enough, or the window is small enough the calendar that appears when a user clicks the textbox for the datepicker appears on top of the textbox - usually it appears below.
I have some text links at the top-right of my page, and if the window is small enough, the datepicker calendar goes underneath these text links.
Is there a way to have the popup calendar ALWAYS on top of every element on the page? If not, is there a way to have the datepicker popup calendar ALWAYS appear below the textbox?
I've seen several posts around this issue but nothing that seems like a definitive resolution.Cycle defaults to positioning the slides at top:0 and left:0 within the container div. I want them to be bottom:0 and left:0 within the container div.
