A Layer that scroll's with the page...?

I'm looking for a tutorial on how to create a layer (if that's how it's
done) that will snap to the 'viewable' window as the user scrolls up/down
the page.

I've seen this done + would like to use it to put a menu in.

Many Thanks,

Navigation links in fixed position elements are problematic. On IE5 Mac,
the links will be broken. Gecko browsers have various anomalies, IE PC
does not support it, Safari and Opera are perfect. What you can do,
however, without conventional scripts, is to use an IE expression, which
will get you covered in the majority of computers. Other browsers will
see the menu as normal.

Use this style:

<style type="text/css">

</style>

substitute "myfixedelement" with the ID of the DIV you want to be fixed.

It can be pretty annoying since some browsers will scroll it much faster/slower than others. But check Marja Ribbers-de Vroed's site
