Coordinates/Position on Element

[NokX]

i have a link that when clicked creates a <div> that displays my tooltip.

that works just fine.

what i'm wanting is for the tooltip to appear at the top-right part of the link. without having set the left/top/width/height of the link, i'm not sure how i can call those attributes.

fyi: i think this is going to be of some help...

you could set the link (or its class) to have position:relative,
and append the tooltip to the link with position:absolute;right:0;top:0.
