You can get link object from the onclick event handler of the link.

<a  href="…" onclick=“var ev =(event||arguments[0]);…”>your link

 Using ev you can get source html element and then get its position .

Grid has two internal functions which possibly could help you:

left = getAbsoluteLeft(obj);
top = getAbsoluteTop(obj);
