I been having questions about how to position the FB like button for a while and decided that instead of telling everyone how to position the button I could write a post on the subject instead.

I made this plugin to be as simple and flexible as posible. in order to do that what I do whenever I use it on a website is to use css or some javascript to position the button wherever i want it to be.

CSS based example, suppose the button has the id


#button-container-id { position:absolue; top: 20em; left: 30%; }


or if using javascript and jquery

$(function(){
    var placeholder = $('#button-placeholder-id').offset();
    if( placeholder ) {
        $('#button-container-id').css({
                position: 'absolute',
                top:placeholder.top,
                left:placeholder.left
        });
    }
});

in the js snippet you are supposed to have a placeholder div with an id that is positioned wherever you want the button to appear
