It is treated as position:absolute. Originally this was because there was no way to implement it in a way that would give satisfactory performance e.g. on peoples' RiscPCs. It forces a serious penalty on scrolling pages that use it. Same with background-attachment:fixed. Now we're less bothered about that, but we aren't likely to implement it before the layout engine rewrite. > Is there anyway to do this that would work in NetSurf? > A JavaScript solution is obviously not on. Only HTML Frames, but they have their own limitations. Does your design actually need it? Usually I detest it when I see it. :) The performance penalty can affect e.g. Chrome/Firefox on modern PCs too, although to a lesser extent. -- Michael Drake (tlsa) http://www.netsurf-browser.org/
