RE: [WSG] [Fixed div elements] - Having troubles with IE

Bret!

That is exactly what am I talking about.
I applaud your skill, but not your memory :)

I am trying to pick away at your css to figure out how you got it
working but so far I have had no luck. I will most likely create a new page
away from the code I have no to see if I can just get it working.

Thanks for pointing me in some direction!

Kinda like www.sure-kleen.com ?

Don't ask me how I did it - I forgot.  But if it does what you 
want, feel free to reverse-engineer.

Andrew,
You could also look at this - the code explains what's happening.

Hey Grant,

I changed the doctype to strict locally and still the scrollbar does
appear. I also already have those additional tags added. Do you know of a
website that has enough content that scrolls and has div banners such as
mine only done in css? I cannot say I have saw many that do. I am still on
top of this. 

Thanks for the link Grant :)

IE (up to IE6) does not recognise position:fixed.
Try something like

Subject: [WSG] [Fixed div elements] - Having troubles with IE

Hello WSG,

I am currently building a website. It displays correctly in Fire
Fox
but I am having difficulties with Internet Explorer.

http://www.monsterboxproductions.com/pcmedic_temp/pcmedic_temp.html

The page has two fixed div elements. There is a div at the top and
bottom of
the page. I was previously having difficulties getting the bottom div to
correctly display but I have overcome that problem. My problem is the
fact
that the page in Internet Explorer is not scrollable. I am not sure why
and 

I was using tagsoup's tutorial on having fixed div elements to display
properly.
http://tagsoup.com/-dev/null-/css/fixed/#demos
 
Any suggestions are appreciated.

For easy of use I have added mirco buttons on the bottom the page to
check
validation and to view the code. I would like to give credit to
http://www.slipsnisse.se/ for their Esacpe HTML coding tool
http://www.slipsnisse.se/tools/coding-tools.php
