Picking and calling original css with data() and attr() works in Firefox, but not in Opera and Chrome?

I want to be able to reset draggable div to it's original position after dragging (jquery ui draggable()) on some event in jquery. I did this:

$('#nav').draggable();

$('#nav').data({'x': $("#nav").css('left'), 'y': $("#nav").css('top')});

$("#c").click(function () {
    $('#nav').animate({'left': parseInt($("#nav").data('x')) - 15, 'top': parseInt($("#nav").data('y')) - 14}, {duration : 500});
});

and it works even in older Firefox but not in newest Opera and Chrome. I tried to replace data() with attr() and it's still the same.

How can this be achieved in a more cross-browser manner?

edit: here is this code in action: http://jsfiddle.net/MVCA6/

In chrome i HAve seen result using 

console.log($("#nav").data('x'));

It return auto;

In mozilla it gives

447px

Possibly this may be the reason why it is not working in chrome.But if you assign left and top property in #nav in css as

left:447px;top:352px

It works fine. SEE DEMO HERE

The problem here is that jQuery UI Draggable uses the top and left properties to move elements around, whereas you're setting the red boxes position using bottom and right;

Adding console.log($('#nav').data()) to the click event you'll see your properties x and y are both set to auto.

To solve this you'll need to update your CSS to position the red box using top and left.

As a side note: Proper indentation of code can help wonders when it comes to debugging issues.
