[SOLVED] Transparent URxvt position in Openbox

Question

I've followed the "Urxvt in the background" topic in the ArchWiki Openbox entry. I am unable to get the terminal to appear anywhere but the upper right corner. I have tried various changes to the postion settings in the application section of the rc.xml file with no effect. It also doesn't seem to be on the bottom layer, as other windows can be moved below it. It also doesn't have focus.
My current application section is rc.xml
<application name="urxvt">
<decor>no</decor>
<focus>yes</focus>
<position>
<x>-5</x>
<y>0</y>
</position>
<layer>below</layer>
<desktop>all</desktop>
</application>

Answer 1

That didn't work either. Here is what I have found, after further experimenting...
Here is my .Xdefaults file
URxvt*transparent:true
URxvt*scrollBar: false
#URxvt*borderLess: true
URxvt*foreground: White
And here is my current rc.xml file
<application name="urxvt">
<decor>no</decor>
<focus>yes</focus>
<position>
<x>-5</x>
<y>5</y>
</position>
<layer>below</layer>
<desktop>1</desktop>
</application>
As shown above, my terminal appears as transparent, on the desktop, and in the upper right-hand corner, but with a black border. If I uncomment the "URxvt*borderLess: true" line the terminal appears in the upper left-hand corner and borderless. It is as though this line causes the position section in the rc.xml file to be ingnored.:(
