    <p>I made a drag-and-drop engine in JavaScript, and I'm currently adding a "bounding" feature. My issue is that the bounding element's position changes depending on its parent's <code>position:</code> attribute.</p> <p>In other words this html:</p> <pre><code>&lt;div id="center" class="bound"&gt; &lt;h1&gt;Hello World! &lt;hr /&gt;&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;div id="box" class="bound"&gt; &lt;p class="drag square" id="one"&gt; One &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="drag square" id="two"&gt; Two &lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>and this html:</p> <pre><code>&lt;div id="center"&gt; &lt;!-- Difference is here --&gt; &lt;h1&gt;Hello World! &lt;hr /&gt;&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;div id="box" class="bound"&gt; &lt;p class="drag square" id="one"&gt; One &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="drag square" id="two"&gt; Two &lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>affect the engine in different ways, and they shouldn't. Only the <code>&lt;div id="box" class="bound"&gt;</code> should affect the drag object.</p> <p>Here is the CSS:</p> <pre><code>@charset "utf-8"; /* CSS Document */ * { padding: 0px; margin: 0px; } .drag { position: absolute; -webkit-user-select: none; -moz-user-select: none; user-select: none; } .bound { position: relative; } .square { width: 100px; height: 100px; background: red; cursor:move; } #center { width: 500px; height: 300px; margin: auto; margin-top: 50px; background-color:#ccc; text-align: center; border-radius: 25px; -moz-border-radius: 25px; } #box { background-color: #FF3; height: 278px; border-radius: 0 0 25px 25px; -moz-border-radius: 0 0 25px 25px; opacity: 0.5; } </code></pre> <p>If anyone asks for the JavaScript function which sets the bounding, I will be happy to post it in an edit!</p> <p><strong>To make the position attribute not affect my JavaScript would I need to translate everything into absolute coordinates? How would I do this? Will translating everything into absolute coordinates allow the JavaScript to treat the two html samples the same way?</strong></p>

    2. CO@patrick It's a slightly different question. My last question was double sided and was really more about the `.drag` object (even though it didn't get a lot of attention). This question is focussed around the `.bound` class (and not the loops aspect of correctly setting the boundary which the last post was about). I was planning on making another question later specifically about the drag-object. This question is about how to (specifically) make the `position` attribute not affect anything else.

    3. COI'll take your word that this is a different issue. Just be aware that you shouldn't re-post the same question. You can edit it to provide more info, which may help attract some attention. You can also place a "bounty" on the question after 2 days in order to motivate others to take a closer look.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
