[jQuery] Getting position of link parent in table
Hello
I have one anchor link per row in my table's td's with a css class of
.viewLink, and have attached a simple event to display a div with the
contents from an ajax request. Now i am trying to align the popup with the
position of the link, or row at least.
Here is the code i have so far.
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#viewDetailsTable .viewLink").each(function(){
$(this).mouseover(function(){
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: this.href,
data: "format=html",
success: function(response){
//var td = $(this).parent().position();
//alert(td.top);
$("#popUp").empty();
$("#popUp").append(response);
$("#popUp").fadeIn("slow");
}
});
$(this).mouseout(function(){
$("#popUp").fadeOut("slow");
});
return false;
})
});
});
I have tried:
var td = $(this).parent().position();
alert(td.top);
(as commented out above)
..but it doesn't work. How can i get the position of the link in the table
(in pixels, so i can set the style of the pop-up).
