Description

After updating to your latest diminsions.js Revision 939, I get an error never before encountered.

Error in parsing value for property 'left'. Declaration dropped.

This is the error in firefox, IE just thows something generic.

I use this syntax with offset().

pos=$('#'+id).offset();

popup[id].x=(pos.left+pos.width)+3;

popup[id].y=pos.top+1;

Any quick recommendations on what to be looking for? I was previously using a version from around october 2006 without problems.

Thanks,

Jeremy

There was an API change in the favor of performance the extra properties returned by offset have been removed. The error is caused when trying to reference pos.width.

The offset method now only returns a left and top property and sometimes a scrollLeft and scrollTop.

You can get the width by using .width().
