Question

In my javascript method I have this:

if (getInternetExplorerVersion() != '-1') {
        alert("IE!");
        Ice.Menu.showIt(targCompObject.offsetLeft
                + targCompObject.parentNode.offsetLeft,
                targCompObject.offsetTop
                        + targCompObject.parentNode.offsetTop, popupMenu,
                targComp);
    } else {
        Ice.Menu.showIt(targCompObject.offsetLeft,
                targCompObject.offsetTop, popupMenu, targComp);
    }

On FF and Chrome the else part is working fine. On IE, I had to change to calculation so now I have the main if… which is still not good.

Do you know any alternative?

UPDATE: Forgot to mention that for IE, the left is correctly calculated but for top it’s not.

Temporary work-around (ugly of course) is that I have decreased x number of pixels from teh calculation to fit the position where I want the function to display the popup on IE.

Thanks.

Answer 1

There was a div with a margin-top and that was the cause of incorrect left offset calculation for IE.
