The problem with position static, that I can see, is not only is the content static in the y-space, but also in the x-space. This means that if a user scrolls the page left and right, well then the item(s) that you have fixed in a left hand gutter (as an example) do not remain fixed in this space, they end up sliding over the top of your content.
I'm looking for a Prototype.js alternative for this. Any tips? I can think of an alternative approach that might be suitable would be a scrollable div container. I see these more and more, I'm not sure if these are coded with JavaScript or just using CSS overflow style on the div container.
