HTML RadioButton Reference

[Steve Dyke]

I would like some help on radiobutton reference.

I want to display a DIV tag block at the left and top position of a radio button when clicked.

When the radiobutton is clicked I call a js function to load and display the div tag using jQuery. What do I send or need to retreive from the DOM to set the position attributes of the DIV tag in relation the radiobutton location.

This does not help me with the jquery reference to radiobutton syntax.

Utility script for absolutely positioning any widget relative to the window, document, a particular element, or the cursor/mouse.

The fact that a radio button is involved is completely moot. Why do you think that it's significant?

I was trying to get the control name of the radiobutton to use in the .position function. I was trying to use the radiobutton name along with the array index value. I have went back and given the radiobuttons unique id values and it seems to be working as I expect.

What do you mean by this? What is a "control name" ? It often helps when asking questions to speak as technically accurate as possible. Glad you got it working though.

I am used to working with app development in windows environmentMS Foxpro) where each object on a form is a refered to as a control. Sorry.
