this actually works, tested back to ie 5, on safari and FF 2 & 3

function getX( oElement ) {

do{
iReturnValue += oElement.offsetLeft;

return iReturnValue;
}

there is no typo, ‘while(oElement = oElement.offsetParent)’ is the important line

Designers should STOP using all kinds of hacks to make their designs work in IE. I mean, it’s about time all the people who still use IE migrate (…) to browsers that do a better job. Please let IE crash BIG TIME and let’s take it to the graveyard and get it over with, once and for all.
About time it becomes extinct.

My humble opinion…
