Using a variable in a div style tag

I have a menu that stretches across the top of a series of pages, and I need
to be able to change all 8 div's absolute position. Here's the code I am
using:

<div id="layer1" style="position:absolute; width:auto; height:auto; top:1px;
left:50px">

What I need is to be able to change that 'left:50px' to the equiv of
'left:layer1_pos">

any suggestions on how to go about this??

If the left pos is different only from page to page, you could make the
basic styels an external style sheet and override the left position within
each specific document with CSS.

If it vsries in patterns other than from page to page, then this will NOT
work and you will have to build some Javascript method to put your logic
into effect changing the left pos, where and when it is needed.
