This is a fine section for general jQuqery questions. If your question relates to jQuery UI plugins (as I see yours below does), there is the UI mailing list: http://groups.google.com/group/jquery-ui/ > When I attempt to use the resizeable or draggable classes in > jquery.ui, I run into errors. When using draggable, I get a > "this.helper.offsetParent is not a function". message. For resizeable > I get... > this.element.position is not a function > [Break on this error] var o = this.options, iniPos = > this.element.position(), el =this.element, This sounds like you don't have the latest beta version of jQuery (which includes this method which used to be in a separate plugin - dimensions). If you've downloaded the UI 1.5b4 zip file, it's included. It seems the download builder on ui.jquery.com doesn't include it, so you can grab it here: http://dev.jquery.com/view/tags/ui/1.5b4/jquery-1.2.4b.js - Richard Richard D. Worth http://rdworth.org/
