[jQuery] Position.clone in jquery
I've recently moved from prototype to jquery, and wonder if there's something simmilar to Position.clone. That is, match an arbitrary elements position exactly, (with all the offsets and parents and so on, it's more to it than just match top and left attributes) I googled a bit and came up with a test case on the jquery side for the prototype code, which I found somewhat interesting.

Re: [jQuery] Position.clone in jquery
Hi Andreas, yes there is something quite similar, if not even better working thing: It's the additional function offset() in the dimensions.js plugin, which you can get via SVN in the plugins directory. Just pick the element you want and do $(myelement).offset(), and you'll get a nice object that contains left/top. Try it! -Paul 2006/12/19, Andreas Wahlin [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I've recently moved from prototype to jquery, and wonder if there's something simmilar to Position.clone.

Sweet! Thank you, works completely as advertised (once I remember to show the element I actually want to look at hehe) Andreas On Dec 19, 2006, at 11:30 , Paul Bakaus wrote: Hi Andreas, yes there is something quite similar, if not even better working thing: It's the additional function offset() in the dimensions.js plugin, which you can get via SVN in the plugins directory.
