DHTML reference image with out position:absolute

[Camden Daily]

So, for example, you just need to find out the exact (x, y)
coordinates of an element on your page?  You could do it using
javascript:

mapElem = document.getElementById("yourMapId");    
mapMinX = findPosX(mapElem);
mapMinY = findPosY(mapElem);

// find how many pixels an element is from the left of the screen
//  by recursively traversing up the tree and summing the offsets
function findPosX(elem) {
  var left = 0;
  if (elem.offsetParent) {
    while (elem.offsetParent) {
      left += elem.offsetLeft
      elem = elem.offsetParent;
    }
  }
  else if (elem.x) {
    left += elem.x;
  }
  return left;
}

// find how many pixels an element is from the top of the screen
//  by recursively traversing up the tree and summing the offsets
function findPosY(elem) {
  var top = 0;
  if (elem.offsetParent) {
    while (elem.offsetParent) {
      top += elem.offsetTop
      elem = elem.offsetParent;
    }
  }
  else if (elem.y) {
    top += elem.y; }
  return top;
}
