Re: 'offsetWidth/height' function

See, examples:

Layout:
<p>password:<input style="width:80%%"></p>

could be reproduced pretty close by <table> :
<table>
<tr>
<td>password:</td><td width=80%><input style="width:100%"></td><td
width=20%>&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
</table>

Or in XUL:
password:<input flex="8" /><spacer flex="2" />

Yep, it is centering, but what about this:

<DIV style="margin-top:10%%; margin-bottom:50%%">close to the top</DIV>
<DIV style="margin-bottom:40%%">close to the middle</DIV>

In XUL you will need three spacers here. Right? (I am not a practical XUL
programmer)
