Hi all,

I have a little bit of Javascript that almost works correctly. Here's the code:

function toggle(curlink) {
 curlink.style.backgroundColor = curlink.style.backgroundColor == "yellow" ? "transparent" : "yellow";
 var maindiv = document.getElementById("grid");
 var links = maindiv.getElementsByTagName("a");
 var list = "";
 for (var i = 0; i < links.length; ++i) {
  var link = links[i];
  if (link.style.backgroundColor == "yellow") {
   list += ("," + parseInt(link.style.left, 10) + "-" + parseInt(link.style.top, 10));
  }
 }
 document.theForm.theList.value = list.substring(1);
 return false;
};

window.onload = function() {
 var links = document.getElementById("grid").getElementsByTagName("a");
 for (var i = 0; i < links.length; ++i) {
  links[i].onclick = function() { return toggle(this); }
 }
};

The issue is with line #9; it only works when I specify values for the top and left style property of every link in the array. How do I get the top and left style property values (or X and Y coordinates) of each link in the array with Javascript when those values aren't given?

Also, what would the code above look like in jquery? Not that it's needed - I just want to reduce the code a little and dabble in the jquery framework (I'm a Javascript newbie).

Thanks in advance, Dude-Dastic
