Question

I’m using the following code:

var divWithTopLeft = null;
var maxLeft = 0;
$('.place').each(function(){
    left = this.style.left.replace('px','');
    if(left > maxLeft )
    {
         maxLeft = left;
         divWithTopLeft = this;
    }   
});
alert(divWithTopLeft.style.left);

But, it’s work not properly. For my makrup it returns 85. But, there are divs with 220 and more. Can you explain me why?
Demo
Thanks.

Answer 1

You have to convert them to a number first:

var left = parseInt(this.style.left, 10);
