Hi Georg. I'll try that out later today/tomorrow.
I did wonder whether there was some info that was not in the original article. You have kindly provided it. Thanks. As Mr Schwarzenegger said "I'll be back" (to report that is <g>) Regards, Alan. www.theatreorgans.co.uk www.virtualtheatreorgans.com Admin: ConnArtistes, UKShopsmiths, 2nd Touch & A-P groups Shopsmith 520 + bits Flatulus Antiquitus ----- Original Message ----- From: Gunlaug Sørtun To: Alan K Baker Cc: css-d Sent: Saturday, April 19, 2008 8:34 AM Subject: Re: [css-d] IE6 fixed positioning woes Alan K Baker wrote: > I viewed the 'fixed positioning' fix for IE6 at: > http://web.tampabay.rr.com/bmerkey/examples/fake-position-fixed.html > and it works fine. > IE7, Firefox, Opera and Safari all scroll the main content whilst > leaving the nav bar fixed at the left top, as expected.

What the "'fixed positioning' fix for IE6" article does not mention is that _all_ 'absolute' or 'relative' positioned elements are affected by the "fix". This tends to make the "fix" fail in IE6 initially, but with a bit of careful restyling of _interfering_ positioning you _can_ make it work - for most layouts. regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
