[webkit-dev] Accessing Web Kit DOM properties via Javascript

[Andrew Murphy]

 Ahh.. I see now.  Thank you for clearing that up for me. :)

Forgive me for asking but, does anyone know if there is a way to access the
true coordinates of page elements?

You're right, and the coords markup attribute is even allowed for A.  
Looking at the original example more closely, the result is an empty string
because no coords attribute is set on the A element in the markup. coords
reflects an attribute value, it does not give the true coordinates of the A
element. coords is meant for use with client- side image maps, and to my
knowledge only has an actual effect for AREA, not A.

Maciej
