Positioning DIV's with Javascript
- by Andrew P.
I have two divs that I need to position horizontally dependent on the width of the user's screen. I've styled their vertical position in CSS, and I am trying to position them horizontally using Javascript.
My divs:
<div id="tl">
blah blah
</div>
<div id="bl">
blah blah
</div>
My CSS:
#tl {
position: absolute;
top: -14px;
right: 0;
}
#bl {
position: absolute;
bottom: 1px;
right: 0;
}
My Javascript:
var tl = document.getElementById('tl');
var bl = document.getElementById('bl');
var wide = parseInt(screen.width);
var nudge = wide*.86;
nudge = nudge+21;
tl = tl.style;
tl.right = ( parseInt(tl.right) + nudge );
bl = bl.style;
bl.right = ( parseInt(bl.right) + nudge );
However... nothing happens. No errors, and definitely no movement from my divs.
What am I doing wrong? Can anyone help?
