Recording Window Coordinates

Dear all,

I am trying to record window coordinates for all open windows in a
session. I have tried using xwininfo, however, for many windows it
simply reports the same x,y coordinates, speicifically 10. For example
running xwininfo -name Mozilla always gives (with the absolute
coordinates staying the same even after moving the window):

xwininfo: Window id: 0x2a00001 "Mozilla"

Absolute upper-left X: 10
Absolute upper-left Y: 10
Relative upper-left X: 10
Relative upper-left Y: 10
Width: 10
Height: 10
Depth: 24
Visual Class: TrueColor
Border width: 0
Class: InputOutput
Colormap: 0x20 (installed)
Bit Gravity State: NorthWestGravity
Window Gravity State: NorthWestGravity
Backing Store State: NotUseful
Save Under State: no
Map State: IsUnMapped
Override Redirect State: no
Corners: +10+10 -1260+10 -1260-1004 +10-1004
-geometry 10x10+10+10

Can anyone suggest a solution for this problem? Thanks!

Sincerely,
Fahd
