title: adding pixels to jquery .css() left property
body: <p>This is my code:   </p>
  
  <pre><code>var lef=$(this).css("left");
  var top=$(this).css("top");
  alert(lef);
  $(this).after("&lt;div class='edit cancel' style='position:absolute;top:"+top+";left:"+lef+"'&gt;Cancel&lt;/div&gt;");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now the statement <code>var lef=$(this).css("left") + 150</code>, doesn't seem to work. I want to get the left property and add 150 pixels to it</p>
  
  <p>How can i do this ?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
