Window.convertPointFromPageToNode

Non-standard: This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.

Given a WebKitPoint specified in the page's coordinate system, the Window method convertPointFromPageToNode() returns a Point object specifying the same location in the coordinate system of the specified DOM Node.

Warning: Please review the Browser compatibility section before using this method, as it's not widely supported (nor is the WebKitPoint object it uses).

A Point object describing the specified location in the node's coordinate system.
