adding style to an element using jquery
lets say you had this div structure
<div id="main">
<div class="sub">
Content for the sub div
</div>
</div>
you want to set main to relative and sub to absolute correct ?
<script>
$(function() {
$("#main").css({ position:"relative", top:"0", left:"0")};
$(".sub").css({ position:"absolute", top:"30%", left:"40%")};
});
</script>
did you mean something else ?
