I am trying to find the actual _displayed_ position of a floated
element using Javascript. Does anyone know of a technique to do this?
I know that per the CSS2 spec, floated elements are removed from the
flow and thus don''t really have a position (AFAIK). However, I am
trying to find the position in which the item is actually displayed.
Prototype''s Position object only returns the position that the
element would be in if it were in the flow.
Some background: I am creating yet another CMS and I am trying to
overlay a graphic (with partial transparency) on top of certain page
elements. Because the page templates are flexible, it needs to work
with floated as well as absolute/relative/static/fixed position
elements.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
