Using jQuery's position() or offset(), I can't seeme to get the top/left coordinates of an image map area. It works in FF, but nothing else - no webkit, IE, Opera.

$('area').bind("click",function(){
 alert($(this).position().left);
}); 

<area shape="rect" coords="14,25,205,150" href="#">

Anyone know of a different way to access these? Normally I would just take the coords and split(",") but there are a bunch of multi-faceted area's on these pages.
