offsetParent unspecified error

HI ,
Is ther any work around for this error .. on IE8

i am getting error for line elem.offsetParent;

its on IE8 specific issue ?

You need to show more code and give us the exact error message.

Eric

no only this much of error its throwing

Line: 662
Error: Unspecified error.
where linr 662 is
if(this.field.offsetParent)

i googled it its IE8 bug if DOM structure refreshes it throws error for offsetParent.

n asking to put that code in try{} catch ..but i have many occurances of this offsetParent..

so if is there nay alternative it is most welcome
