Relative/Absolute Coordinate Issue with JS popup menu?

[danielh68]

Hi,

I just started building a site (

http://www.blitzdesign.net/matchstorm/)and

I have already approached a problem. I designed the site with a centered table and for this particular piece I like it. Anyhow, I decided to implement a popup menu, which works fine except when I stretch the browser window. When that occurs, the sub menus refuse to accomdate the new coordinates.

My question is this: how do I make the sub menus positioning absolute to the table and not the browser?

Your expertise is very much appreciated.

Thanks,
Dan

I have done this with IE using element.offsetParent and recurse up the tree to the body element. For each element u add the element.clientOffsetX and clientOffsetY or something like that. u can find out exactly on MSDN

Good luck
