personally, i think the better way would be to redefine the selected style, add a 20px margin-left and set a no-repeating background image to be your image, but if that doesn't work for some reason, then maybe what you're saying. what you're describing is solving this problem with a sledge hammer. you're goign to try to absolutely position an image, which is going to scroll wrong, etc. i guess you could add it x,y relative to the scrolling div ..... i would definitely try to solve this with css first.

Hello Mike..

as you can see Im new to this.. but the $$ mean that are Prototype functions?.



doesn't it have a "selected" class assigned to it when it's selected? you should be able to do $$('#listid .selected') (or whatever the class is -- do a dom introspection on it to know for sure

ms

yes I have in my CSS a li.selected{attributes} also a li a.Hoover{}, (i cant recall the exact names or syntax, I have my dev computer at home)... and one I select something or hover over some li the css styles are being applied.

so if I understood good, I can do something like... var sel = $$ ('li.selected'); and the take the position x,y of sel and apply it to the image setting the z-index to +1 the <li> isn it? am I swimming in the right way?

thanks

Gustavo
