Technicaly AJAX means asynchronous XML and JavaScript using XmlHttpRequest, but people have been building such systems way before XmlHttpRequest using hidden iframes and JavaScript sent over from the server rather than XML. Maybe I should have called the post "DHTML: How to Position Things on Screen".<BR/><BR/>Thanks for telling me about those two methods; I did not know those. How is moz's implementation of that method buggy? Can IE's getClientRect() method be trusted? How does it act if you shift IE 6 into standards compliant mode using the standards compliant doctype, the one that fixes the CSS box model in IE 6?Brad Neuberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03274020042497854648noreply@blogger.com
