Thanks Martin - that looks intriguing!  Leave it with me and I'll attach the
'proper' menu and see how it all looks.

Thanks too for all the other advice/help from you folks.

I've never had a lot of success with that overflow idea either.
The other way to go at it, though, is to use position:fixed on
the menu, and let the rest of the page scroll normally. IE can
be made to emulate fixed positioning through several different
means.

I've taken your source and modified it using IE's expressions to
get what I think you're looking for:

The one problem I can see is that IE users with Javascript turned
off will have the menu scroll with the rest of the page. Up to
you whether or not that's a deal breaker...
