Hi.
Is detecting the true element mouse coordinates (the exact coordinates
of the mouse pointer on the element it's currently hovering,
[event.]layerX/layerY (only absolutely position/Mozilla) or
[event.]offsetX/offsetY(IE/Safari only)) still impossible? I remember
trying to do this a few years back, when I found out that it only worked
for elements with position: absolute, and that makes the function
completely useless and very stupid indeed.
I'm running some tests now, but none of them makes me very happy.
Regards,
Håkan
