[Javascript] Positioning in IE

[hakan at backbase.com (Hakan Magnusson (Backbase))]

None of the previous replies, including the ones in your, are conformant 
to the DOM standard. In fact, it's not going to work on any browser 
except Internet Explorer, and I have a hard time seeing how 
"glava.style.pixelLeft=500px" could ever work.

I just added my $0.02 in case somebody wanted to do it the RIGHT way, 
and don't want to split their code up more than necessary.

Regards,
H
