thedailybeast.com has article titles anchoring themselves to the top
of the page. Not navigation, but thats the effect you were looking
for, right?
For me, it is distracting. I see a flickering effect in my peripheral
vision every time I scroll the page down. My focus is lost briefly,
but
If done with CSS there is no flicker because there is no lag due to JS
being silly.
I'm not able to find the title issue you are talking about. Do you
have a link to it directly?

Fixed menus do make sense in terms of usability.
Two examples with a menu fixed on the left:
~ http://www.designbyfire.nl
~ http://www.nva-amserfoort.nl
Both work in Internet Explorer 6 as well.
I use the same technique (as described in

Hmm sorry, a typo. The second example should be:
~http://www.nva-amersfoort.nl

Welcome to
The end result of a fixed menu seems quite similar to a menu in a frame.
I'm always hearing that frames should be avoided, so what's the difference
here? Is it all in the technical implementation of frames vs CSS rather
than being a design issue?

Frames are not a problem design-wise, they just cause orphan pages,
that is, a search engine might index the pages being framed and not
the frame-set and a user may come to the page without a menu and be
lost.
CSS fixed elements are arranged based on the window itself, and so
they stay wherever

I really don't understand why it isn't used
Not a problem.

Welcome to the Interaction Design
Also, And I'm so sorry about double-posting about this but it is
important and should be said.
Even IF you can't get it working in all browsers, you can make it
degrade well and turn into a header or right/left column nav that
isn't fixed.
Lack of support in one browser is never a reason to
Hi,
I think Facebook has what you're looking for.

If you wish to build one of these, google position:fixed This is a
CSS property that will enable you to make fixed menus and such. I want
to see more of these on the web. They make sense.

Hello all,
I'm having trouble finding some examples of an interesting UI I -know- I've
seen. I'm not sure what to call it, and have browsed some of my go-to
interaction design libraries
I'm thinking of a navigation that is anchored to the bottom of the browser.
