Can I prevent an item from scrolling with the page? Viken Karaguesian 12-07-2005

Hello all,

Can I prevent something, say a <div>, from scrolling when the page is
scrolled? I know that with CSS, "background-attach: fixed" will anchor
the background element and prevent it from scrolling.

Is there a similar html/css variable or command that I can apply to a
DIV, TABLE, or IMG?

Viken K.

position: fixed

Supported by CSS 2 browsers.

JavaScript workarounds exist for MSIE.

Thanks for the reply.

Let me guess: IE6 is *not* a CSS 2 Browser, right? Can you point me in
the direction of where I can find some of these javascript workarounds?
Thanks.
