Find Position Of An Element Relative To Browser Window?

Feb 8, 2010

I need to find the position of an element on the page relative to the browser window. Its part of a popup calendar script (and no, they don't want to change it so please don't suggest jQuery date-picker etc) The script uses these functions [url]... to find the position of the anchor to pop up the calendar next to it.

Now the client wants to make the calendar fixed when the user scrolls so that it always stays on screen. The most graceful solution is using css position:fixed (I'm aware it doesn't work in IE6 - that's not a problem)

I've been using the getAnchorWindowPosition function to get the coordinates but the numbers its giving are wrong (to different degrees depending on the browser) It was only 200px out in the Y axis in Firefox but in IE7&8 its off the screen.

Position Divs Relative To Window Size

Jun 19, 2003

I want my divs (position: absolute) to be positioned relatively to window size My page is a main table with one cell containing all the rest This cell (anf thus my page) is centered (top and left) Each menu link has onMouseOver which shows (visibility) the corresponding layer (div)

Each visible/invisible layer is positioned on the same spot I use absolute positioning for the divs because some browsers don't support positioning relative to tables My question: is the following code the only solution or am I making my life (slightly) complicated over nothing?

This thing works on NN4, 6 7, IE 4, 5, PC and Mac -- that I know of; repositions divs onResize, with reLoad fix for !#+x°! NN4 I get the window size: Code:

JQuery :: Set Relative Position For Dialog Box When Page Becomes Longer?

Aug 9, 2011

Have a web app which consists of a form and have it set up to launch a dialog box containing information next to the subject label text field.Everytime, someone fills out the form and clicks on submit, the form's message body (from the text area of the form) is displayed on top and theform is displayed underneath it. Before, I had it set up as fixed (x,y) for the dialog box to appear next to the subject label. But, now, whenthe page becomes longer, the dialog box doesn't appear next to my subject label text field. It is displayed a lot lower.

Here's the code to find the position:

// Finds the position and adds 40px to the left axis.
function findPosition(obj) {
var curleft = curtop = 0;
if (obj.offsetParent) {

[Code]....

How can I set it so my findPosition() calculation doesn't miscalculate when the page is too long (when scroll bars are needed)?

Is there a way to set the relative positioning to always have the dialog appear 40px right of the subject label?

What is the best way to get the position of an element relative to the document (accounting for margins as well)?I would like to position another element over it. I'm using the offset() function but i am running into issues 1. The values for top & left returned in IE 8 (perhaps other versions) are incorrect.2.

JQuery :: Slideup/slidedown Doesn't Work In IE With Position:relative?

Jul 19, 2009

I made this quick 12sec/600KB screencast to help illustrate what's happening:[URL]...There is a hidden div that contains the fieldset. The slide is applied to the div. In Firefox, the element that has the slideDown/SlideUp effect applied works fine. In IE7, the element just appears, then the elements around it slide (which appears broken)

The fieldset element has a position:relative property (which is needed for fixing CSS bugs on the legend tag)

If I remove the position:relative property, slideUp/slideDown works fine in IE7 (but breaks the legend tag)

Is there a way around this without having to remove the position:relative property?

Iframe Relative Mouse Position

Jul 20, 2005

I have an iframe with some javascipt that gets the mouse x and y
position like this:

//inside the iframe's onmousemove call back funciton
xMousePos = window.event.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft;
yMousePos = window.event.clientY + document.body.scrollTop;

This gets the x and y position inside the iframe. But what I want is
the x and y position of the parent window, not the screen like
screenX. Is there any easy way to get parentX and parentY or to get
the offset x and y of the iframe relitive to the parent from inside
the iframe?

Element Position Relative To Screen

Nov 23, 2007

Is there any way in Javascript to find the position of an element relative to the screen rather than the browser viewport? I can't find anything.

Is this possible? The reason I ask is I wish the values to be used in Java, which needs coordinates relative to the screen.

I'm busy trying to build an interface where users can create a sort of collage with images that they upload. I know it is possible to get the position of a DHTML element relative to the screen, the problem is I need the coordinates relative to a main div tag so that I can "compile" the collage and then when it gets served it will look the same regardless of screen size.

Relative Position Of Vertical Menu Bar

Jul 2, 2004

I wonder if you can help? I've implemented a ready made JavaScript vertical toolbar into my Web site but have problems with positioning. It only has by default absolute positioning parameters and I need to change them to relative as whenever the browser is resized the menu stays at the same place on the screen. I was told that using <DIV> tags can help, but I have no idea how to do it.

Can anyone please submit a working example code of asigning relative parameters to the menu?

How To Set Position Of Layer Relative To A Table Cell??

Nov 26, 2002

I am trying to make a layer that mimics a particular cell in a table (please dont ask me why, its complicated). I have created the layer so that its dimensions exactly match the table cell in question. Now I want to create a function that sets the top and left position of the layer to exactly match the top and left position of the cell in question. I have already had a try myself, but for the life of me can't quite figure it out.

I tried giving the cell in question and 'id' tag (id="centerCol") and then referencing the left and top values of the object. See the following code:

document.getElementById('layerHeader').style.left = document.getElementById('centerCol').style.left;

Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong?

Positioning A Child Window Relative To The Parent

Jul 23, 2005

I have made a remote control window which opens from its parent. On loading, the remote is positioned relative to the screen using window.moveTo(x,y).

What I would like to happen is the remote control to open docked in a
specific location relative to the parent (opener).

Fortunately, I need this to work ONLY in IE, so at least I don't have to
worry about cross-browser issues.

Does anyone know how to open a window realtive to an anchor in the parent
wiondow?

JQuery :: How To Know The Exact Absolute Position Of An Element In The Browser

Jan 22, 2011

i would like to know the absolute position of an element (e.g. <LI>) in the browser. i nned to know it in order to place juste beside another element (e.g. submenu).

for example: i have a <li> tag which is at 400px from my browser left border (because it is inside a div which is screen centered). this <li> has a width of 180 px so if i want to know the most left position for my submenu, i should get 400 + 180 = 580 px (from the browser left border).

i tried offset but without success. in fact it returns me 0.

Accessibility: Possible To Determine Browser-chosen Point Size Of A Relative Font-size?

Jul 23, 2005

All my font-sizes are set as relative sizes in CSS (large, medium, small,
x-small, etc). Let's say something is set in CSS to be xx-large, but a
visually impaired user wants it displayed even bigger. Can a script
determine an element's absolute size, *as it is being rendered by the
browser*, and then increment the element's font-size in absolute terms?

Problem With 'undefined' Object In Server Side JavaScript

Jul 23, 2005

I'm displaying a loggin page.

If the user entered an invalid UserName/Password I display the page again.
When this happens I want to give the user a different message then the one displayed when the page was initially displayed.

I use the Response.Redirect method from the page checking the submition.
When I do that I call the page with a parameter like this Response.Redirect("Page.asp?FROM=1").

When I get the parameter in the page I know I need to show a different message.

The problem is that if the page is called without the parameter, I
cannot determine that the parameter is missing.

The codse is very simple:

from_flag = Request.QueryString("FROM")

Now is the problem -

if I use if(from_flag == 'undefined') - this condition return
false.
but if I display from_flag using Response.Write(from_flag) I get "undefined"

if I use if(typeof from_flag == "undefined") - this does not work since the typeof return "object" in both cases when I call the page with the parameter or without the parameter.

also I tried to comnpare with null does not work.

By the way if I use VBScript as the script lang - it works fine I just need to compare the from_flag with vbNullString and all is well....
