If you have an element that is positioned absolutely and you use position. It has to have a top value set. If it is left off, IE7/8 will position the element in the wrong page location.

This is fixed with jQuery 1.4.3 (unreleased). The problem is actually in jQuery's offset setter. See http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/5781.

The workaround for this is to just do .css({ top: 0, left: 0 }).position({...}) which is what we do in all of the jQuery UI plugins. We won't fix this in the position plugin, just use the workaround until jQuery 1.4.3 is released.
