how can i fix this to work correctly in ie7 (and preferably ie6)this is what's supposed to happen: in a text field, as a uk postcode is typed in, once the user has typed in enough to know where the space in the postcode should be it's being placed in there for them automatically.

I'm having a jsp page which is having a table and a div tag.The heading such as a radio button,Name , Age etc. are fixed.Only the data under it is scrolling. So i've set one table for header which are fixed.
Then a div tag inside which there is a table which is used for scrolling the data.When i select a radio i'm submitting the form.The problem is here i'm able to set focus to the radio button, but i'm unable to maintain the scrolling position, when i scrolled downeards. I want the same scrolling position as it was before submitting the form.
Code is something like this:

I need the top of a background image to always be 50% from the top. I think I read that some browsers do not like the backgroundPositionY property so I used the following script which finds the right value but doesn't apply it to the background position. What should I change?

I have a 'window' that is moveable on this test page:[URL]... I'm trying to use cookies to store the window positions in the mouseup function. That part is working fine. The problem is that I can't figure out how to locate the window to the x,y variables after returning from checkCookie(). I've tried a few things and they are commented out if you look at the javascript. I thought that this would work, but it doesn't:
$(".window1")[0].offsetLeft = x;
$(".window1")[0].offsetTop = y;
Can someone explain the correct way to do this? Also, why is the '[0]' required? I found that I need this from firebug, but don't know why.

I have the non-standard element
<testele></testele>
In every browser except IE, this bit of JavaScript will successfully change the content of the above element:
document.getElementsByTagName("testele")[0].innerHTML = 'hi';
However, if I change the <testele> to just a <span> (in the HTML and the JavaScript), it now successfully changes the content of the element in every browser, including IE.

Any idea on how to get the coordinates/position of a div element? For example I want to get the coordinates of a particular poll which is placed on my right sidebar.
I tried this, but will not work:
document.getElementById('test').style.left
Must I set the position to relative for the element test?

The snippet below is related to some code that I'm developing that will eventually cause a scrolling DIV (overflow-y:scroll) to scroll to bring a specified element into view. I actually developed the code about a year ago. The code worked under IE6, but does not appear to work under IE7. Is offsetTop still a valid means of getting the position of an element?

n the following script, I am trying to set selection to a select
option element, that is newly created within the script. It works fine
on IE installations on Windows 2000 and some XP machines. But on some
XP machines, the selection doesn't happen and it defaults to the first
element in the options array. Has anybody come across this problem ?
Any known workarounds?

In order to design a custom select element look in my site, I was messing with the css and opacity value to fade the actual select box and put a background image in a div right above the select element. The functionality of the select box is preserved no matter if opacity is set to 0, so I was able to accomkplish my goal.But, that worked for every other browser around except IE6.Is there a please someone there that encountered this problem and possibly knows some kind of workaround?

I am dynamically building a part of my HTML page by setting the innerHTML of a DIV element. Immediately after I do that I try to retrieve the clientHeight and clientWidth of the DIV element in order to determine what height and width the element actually ended up being. But I always get 0 as both the height and width. The contents of the DIV, i.e. the HTML code that I inserted into it via the innerHTML, does indeed get displayed on the page. But I suspect that the browser doesn't actually update the page until AFTER my JavaScript code has completed and "returns control" to the browser.
Does that make sense? Is there any way I can force the browser to update the page BEFORE my code completes its processing, so that I can properly retrieve the width and height of the element I just inserted into the page?

I'm trying to get the position of a table on a page..
<table id="tab">
by using :
var x = getAbsX(document.getElementById("tab"))
var y = getAbsX(document.getElementById("tab"))
which calls:
function getAbsX(elt) { return (elt.x) ? elt.x : getAbsPos(elt,"Left"); }
function getAbsY(elt) { return (elt.y) ? elt.y : getAbsPos(elt,"Top"); }
function getAbsPos(elt,which) {
iPos = 0;
while (elt != null) {
iPos += elt["offset" + which];
elt = elt.offsetParent;
}
return iPos;
}
but the thing keeps giving me 0's for both x and y in IE but works in
Firefox. Can anyone help?

So I have created a simple calendar [URL] and I have a bunch of "More Info" buttons I made from cells. In a table cell to the right are a bunch of hidden DIV's that all appear when you rollover a "More Info" button, obviously giving more details about the calendar date/event.
My problem is that I have to give an exact "top" css position to every one of these hidden div's every single time I add a new event to the calendar. I want to dynamically tell each hidden div to match the "top" css position to match the top position of each "More Info" button. How do I do that?

I've been trying the find the (x,y) co-ordinates of an element. I've been using;
document.getElementById(element).style.top
document.getElementById(element).style.left
However this doesn't always work in my script. Now, I've googled how to find the position of an element. And come accross many scripts which supposedly all find the position of any object. Some are very long scripts and some are very short all using a variety of methods. Incidently none of which work, they all return (0,0).

how can I get the absolute position of a relative element?
We dynamically create a page with multiple segments which are relatively
ordered among each other. In these segments we have input fields.
When such an input field is focused I need it's absolute position.
Is there a way to do so with IE > 6?

I have a web page that renders a table with about 300 rows in it, which means vertical scrolling. At the end of the page there's a hidden div element sitting. Each row in the table contains a button which needs to call a javascript which should position the hidden div right next to the clicked button. I've tried a lot of different approaches that I've found on google, but all of them only position the div around the top area of the page. If I scroll down a ways and click the button, I have to scroll back up to the top of the page to find the div.
The primary target is users using IE8, but of course, if there's a cross-browser solution for this problem, that would be super!

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.
