I have been told that my question is ambiguous. So I am restating it with some code

I have 6 img tags:

<div>
      <img class="cards" id="img1" border=0 src="./images/blank.gif" style="left:200px">
      <img class="cards" id="img2" border=0 src="./images/blank.gif"  style="left:220px" >
      <img class="cards" id="img3" border=0 src="./images/blank.gif"  style="left:240px" >
      <img class="cards" id="img4" border=0 src="./images/blank.gif"  style="left:260px" >
      <img class="cards" id="img5" border=0 src="./images/blank.gif"  style="left:280px" >
      <img class="cards" id="img6" border=0 src="./images/blank.gif"  style="left:300px" >
</div

That I have positioned to the bottom of the page overlapping each other:

.cards {
      position:absolute;
      top: 420px;
}

When a user hovers over a card I want to decrease its top position thereby lifting the card. If the user leaves the card then I want to return the card to its original top position. If the user clicks on the card I want to change the top and left positions and leave it there. I wrote a lift function in javascript but found out there is a better way to do it in jquery. I was having problems responding to the click event. I hope this is clear. Any questions please ask.

Please help.
