// Get position of element inside container, could be in 1 of 9 possible positions
getPosition(element, container, 3, 3);// As above, but with edge positions less likely to be considered
getPosition(element, container, 5, 5);Returns the coordinates required to place element at position, on the outside edge of reference.
// Get coords to position element at the bottom left of reference
getCoords('bottom left', element, reference);
