.offset() is not consistent between browsers

[Sayan.Chaliha]

The offsets returned by jQuery.fn.offset() isn't relatively same across browsers.

For instance, code that creates a DIV below another element in Mozilla-based browsers would create a DIV above the other element in Webkit-based browsers.

Example:

var offset = $('#div1').offset();

offset.top += $('#div1').outerHeight();

This causes div#div2 to be placed below div#div1 in Firefox

In Chrome and Safari, div#div2 is placed above div#div1

$('#div2').offset(offset);
