The 140byt.es site hasn't launched yet, but for now follow @140bytes on Twitter.
To learn about byte-saving hacks for your own code, or to contribute what you've learned, head to the wiki.
140byt.es is brought to you by Jed Schmidt. It was inspired by work from Thomas Fuchs and Dustin Diaz.
Why not both in one function?
function(a,x,y){for(x=y=0;a;a=a.offsetParent)x+=(a.offsetLeft||0),y+=(a.offsetTop||0);return{left:x,top:y}}Anyway, the offset method is not very precise in some browsers (especially in Quirks mode). A better way to go (if available) is to use getBoundingClientRect, though this results in relative positions to the visible browser window.
