From: "Burke, Joel"
I would like to maintain the same row positioning ...
Yea, that sounds like a call for absolute positioning or a font where each character has a fixed width like what you get with <pre> tags.
If you need to go with absolute positioning, my inclination would be to assign each element a row and column attribute in the HTML file, and use a generic Javascript routine at runtime to actually perform the positioning when the page is loaded, and when the window is resized. Use tags like like:
<input name="COST" row="2" column="10">
But have the JavaScript routine calculate where row and column are in the window. For brevity sake, you might want to reduce row to "r" and column to "c". The element getAttribute() method can be used to return row and column values at runtime.
