 Hi

How do I make an image stay eg at the top left of the page even if the
viewer is scrolling down a long page?

Ugly effect I know but I have a particular use for it.

TIA

Nicholas

Background or foreground image?

If it's a background then background-attachment: fixed;
If it's a foreground image the position: fixed; (not supported by IE,
unless some JavaScript hackery is used).

There are a couple of solutions:
1) Put your scrollable content in a DIV positioned using CSS and use the
"overflow" property to make the box scrollable independently (potential
problems with the Opera browser though).
2) Use CSS to set the image as a background-image with
background-attachment: fixed (probably the best solution.
