Lozenge follow w/tables

Hi. I wrote the script below, and it works normally, but when you put the divs in a table, the lozenge will not follow the selected div. Try it. You will see what I mean. Any solutions?

<BODY ONRESIZE="fixinit()" margintop=0 marginleft=0>
<DIV style="width:170px;height:25px;background-color:#A7C0FF;z-index:1;position:absolute;left:-180px;top:-30px" id="boxie"></DIV>
<DIV style="margin:0px;width:170px;height:25px;border:1px solid #AAAAAA;background-color:transparent;z-index:5;position:relative" onMouseOver="mo(this)" id="topOne">Everyone</DIV>
<DIV style="margin:0px;width:170px;height:25px;border:1px solid #AAAAAA;background-color:transparent;z-index:5;position:relative;border-top:0px" onMouseOver="mo(this)">Nobody</DIV>
<DIV style="margin:0px;width:170px;height:25px;border:1px solid #AAAAAA;background-color:transparent;z-index:5;position:relative;border-top:0px" onMouseOver="mo(this)">Somebody</DIV>
<DIV style="margin:0px;width:170px;height:25px;border:1px solid #AAAAAA;background-color:transparent;z-index:5;position:relative;border-top:0px" onMouseOver="mo(this)">The body</DIV>

<script language="javascript">
function voidinit()
{
document.getElementById("boxie").style.left=document.getElementById("topOne").offsetLeft+"px";
document.getElementById("boxie").style.top=document.getElementById("topOne").offsetTop+"px";
}
function fixinit()
{
document.getElementById("boxie").style.left=document.getElementById("topOne").offsetLeft+"px";
document.getElementById("boxie").style.top=document.getElementById("boxie").style.top;
}
voidinit();
var impressive=null;
function mo(d)
{
impressive=d;
if(document.getElementById("boxie").style.left!=d.offsetLeft+"px" ¦¦ document.getElementById("boxie").style.top!=d.offsetTop+"px")
{
window.setTimeout("mo(impressive)",5);
}
if(document.getElementById("boxie").style.left<d.offsetLeft+"px")
{
document.getElementById("boxie").style.left=eval(document.getElementById("boxie").style.left.split("px")[0])+eval(1)+"px";
}
if(document.getElementById("boxie").style.left>d.offsetLeft+"px")
{
document.getElementById("boxie").style.left=eval(document.getElementById("boxie").style.left.split("px")[0])-eval(1)+"px";
}
if(document.getElementById("boxie").style.top<d.offsetTop+"px")
{
document.getElementById("boxie").style.top=eval(document.getElementById("boxie").style.top.split("px")[0])+eval(1)+"px";
}
if(document.getElementById("boxie").style.top>d.offsetTop+"px")
{
document.getElementById("boxie").style.top=eval(document.getElementById("boxie").style.top.split("px")[0])-eval(1)+"px";
}
}
</script>

// + a couple of new globals to carry elm refs
var impressive=null;
var box;
var topOne;function voidinit()
{
 box = document.getElementById("boxie");
 topOne = document.getElementById("topOne");
 box.style.left = topOne.offsetLeft+"px";
 box.style.top = topOne.offsetTop+"px";
}
function fixinit()
{
 box.style.left = topOne.offsetLeft+"px";
 // whassat?
 // document.getElementById("boxie").style.top
 //  = document.getElementById("boxie").style.top;
}
function mo(d)
{
 var boxLeft = parseInt(box.style.left);
 var boxTop = parseInt(box.style.top);
 impressive = d;
 if ( boxLeft!= d.offsetLeft ŚŚ
  boxTop!= d.offsetTop  )
 {
  window.setTimeout("mo(impressive)",5);
 } if (boxLeft < d.offsetLeft)
  box.style.left = boxLeft+1 +"px";
 else if (boxLeft > d.offsetLeft)
  box.style.left = boxLeft-1 +"px";
 if (boxTop < d.offsetTop)
  box.style.top=boxTop+1 +"px";
 else if (boxTop > d.offsetTop)
  box.style.top=boxTop-1 +"px";
}
