Absolute Positioning Of Nested Elements
Oct 9, 2009
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)

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({

<style>
div#back{
width:1000px;
height:1000px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
background-color:#096;
}div#topmenu{
width:400px;
height:35px;
position:relative;
top:5px;
left:595px;
background-color:#9F0;
}div#logopart{
width:950px;
height:70px;
position:relative;
top:0px;
left:50px;
background-color:#0FF;
}div#leftmenu{
width:100px;
height:400px;
position:relative;
top:0px;
left:0px;
background-color:#999;
}div#cont{
width:900px;
height:500px;
position:relative;
top:0px;
left:0px;
background-color:#FF6;
}</style>...
<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 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.

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.

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?

I'm relatively inexperienced with JavaScript and jQuery, but I've figured out how to cause a response to an arrow button press. However, I would like a nested element to change its position in response to the arrow button press.That causes the parent element to change its position to 10px left of the window. I'm using IE as the test browser.Eventually, the item will only go to the width of the parent tag. I know how to calculate that, but I first need to get the nested element to move, say 10px to the right whenever the right arrow key is pressed.

I have an div element (lets call it div number 1) that I have attached a click event to using jquery.bind() method. That works fine. I then have another div element (div number 2) that is absolute positioned on top of div 1. Now div number 2 also has a click event binded to it, which works... the problem is when I click div 2 and the click event triggers, so does the click event from div 1... I don't want the click event from div 1 to fire.

I am making a system whereby if an element has a class "editable", you can click it and a popup box appears with some options about that particular element. Fairly straightforward, I'm using [code]...
This works fine but I need to be able to have lots of different divs, all with class "editable", some of which are inside others with class "editable". Like this [code]...
However, clicking on the 'somethingelse' div, triggers the click correctly but also triggers it for the parent 'something' div, so I end up with the popup box appearing twice.
Does anyone know how to just catch a click event on the exact div (without using ids) without triggering the parent?

I want to find a way to highlight elements when I click on them. The problem is the elements are nested and when I click on a child element, the parent element is highlighted as well. I would like the child to highlight only, but because the child is within the boundaries of the parent (i.e. you can't hover over the child without also hovering over the parent), the parent highlights as well.
For example, if you have...
<div>
<h1></h1>
<ul>
<li></li>
<li></li>
</ul>
</div>
I'd like to be able to hover over, click and highlight an <li> and hover over, click and highlight the <div> independently of one another. It's no problem to hover over, click and highlight the <div> without highlighting the <li>, but because the <div> encapsulates the <li> it's impossible to hover over, click and highlight the <li> without highlighting the <div>.

I have nested markup like this
Code HTML4Strict:
<li><span></span></li>
I have different click functions, one attached to the li and the other to the span.
When I click on the span they both run. Ending the span's event handler with return false; prevented that from happening, which is what I want. But I'm not sure I understand why it worked.. I know, for example, if I was clicking on an anchor, return false would stop the browsers default action of following the href value. Same for submitting a form, return false will stop this. I don't think I understand why this would stop a completely different function from being triggered..

What is the correct syntax for an nested array where each array element has 3 elements, a number and two text strings?
Code:
array = ['1, Old Man, Old Man','2 Black Sheep, Black Sheep',....]
should the text strings be in double quotes("")?
Code:
array = ['1, "Old Man", "Old Man"','2 "Black Sheep", "Black Sheep"',....]

I have a rather annoying problem with Mac IE 5.2. I use a javascript
function to determine the x, y position of the upper left corner of
this image of the US. Since this image can be placed anywhere in the
browser, the x, y position is not always (0,0). I am also trying to
lay several dot images on top of this image so that when you click the
dot the user can find out more information about certain states. So I
determine the x, y position and add certain pixels so that the dots
will be placed in the correct places in relation to the US image.
This works well with PC's IE. However, when I open this in Mac IE, the
dots are either shifted too high up or too low in relation to the US
image. Strange thing is, when I resize the browser, the dots literally
jump to their correct places.

I'm trying to create a menu in javascript. I've created the bitmaps with
text over the top of them. The problem i'm having is that the positions
aren't correct. If I wrap the code in PRE tags, then this fixes it. But
this seems to be a bit of a hack, as apposed to finding what the bug is.
I've included examples of the problem below:
