You can use either Offset or Position

Offset - Get the current coordinates of the first element in the set of matched elements, relative to the document.

Position - Get the current coordinates of the first element in the set of matched elements, relative to the offset parent.

I think it's .offset() your looking for.

$("#homebox").animate({ left: $("#container").offset().left }, 500);

The above should hopefully work.

Also, should not the container have an ID? # is missing from your selector.
