Getting DIV id based on x & y position

Question

The problem I\'m trying to solve is \"What\'s at this position?\"

It\'s fairly trivial to get the x/y position (offset) of a DIV, but what about the reverse? How do

Answer 1

this might be a little too processor intensive but going over the whole list of div elements on a page, finding their positions and sizes then testing if they're under the mouse. i don't think i'd want to do that to a browser though.
