how to get ancestor positioned element of an absolute element in javascript?

I am new to HTML. I have read that

"An element with position: absolute; is positioned relative to the nearest positioned ancestor (instead of positioned relative to the viewport, like fixed)."

So how to find that nearest positioned ancestor element?

There is a property called offsetParent for element object. ex:

document.getElementById("ElementId").offsetParent
