movediv to X,Y?

[mattover-matter]

I've looked all over in tutorials, but could not find this. How can I move something similar to this:


document.getElementById("div")moveto(20, document.getElementById("imageid").style.left

so it would be 20 px from the top and the left would be aligned with the left of "imageid". Am I confusing you?

Well, you'd probably have to write correct syntax for it to work.

Assuming your DIV container has an ID of "div", the following should work:


var left = parseInt(document.getElementById("imageid").style.left.split('px')[0]);
document.getElementById("div").moveTo(20, left);


Granted, this is off the top of my head. The ...style.left may return a value in pixels, not just numbers. This strips off the "px" and parses it as an integer (which is what the script requires for input), assigns it to a variable, and then the variable is used as a parameter to the moveTo function.

I'm sorry. Just figured it out :p


document.getElementById('divname').style.left = document.getElementById('anotherid').style.pixelLeft
document.getElementById('divname').style.top = '5px'
